Anyone recognize this pottery tile?

This is an art pottery tile mounted on an old blacksmith made wrought Iron stand. Matt glaze, about 8"x8" no marker-mark that I can see.......OR anyone know any other forum where I can post this photo for an ID?

thanks,

Nice! I love the colors.

It's an early 1920s "fashion" tile. Compare it with the prints at the link below. I've see similar tiles as inserts in bathrooms of the era, but know nothing about the maker or artist.

Thanks for the link..

Knowing nothing about 20Âs fashion, I always thought it was later, because of the hair style and dress etc... But now I see similar styles from that site from the 20Âs eraÂinteresting.

Sorry, that should have been Meissen. But thanks for sending me to eBay, I found more incl this one. My vase is 8.75" high, the mark I couldn't figure out I think is "slb". This one is from the same maker, obviously a big difference b/t number 21 and number 612, but look at the price! A couple of smaller ones listed too, but I'm not sure sellers know what they have. I emailed all of them, will let you know what responses I get (if any). Last time I emailed ebay sellers looking for info on my great-great-grandpa's Victrola, eBay told me someone was using my email to spam people. Here is a link that might be useful: mPm pottery vase

If you instead select the simulated porcelain marble from Floor & Decor you won't have to seal the marble worry about etching pay the additional cost to have marble tile instead of porcelain tile installed purchase 20% overage so your tile setter can throw out all the tiles that are completely off color and will run the job. You can have this tile set with a 1/16" joint and no one but you will know that it's not the real thing.

Are you sure they are not just floor slickers? They are applied directly over tile. https://quadrostyle.com/collections/floor-stickers

There are several brands that make similar tiles. I had a few saved in my files. I'll add links as I find them. It is usually called a Versaille pattern. Also when you look at a tile collection online, you might have to click "Decors" to see any special shapes/sizes that are available for that collection. https://www.florim.com/en/casadolcecasa-casamood/collection/wooden-tile-of-cdc/#decori Tile: Settecento - Vintage - Rovere

I have seen tables made just like that for a decorative tile....without a marking, it would ba hard to say who made it.....there were a lot of tiles made by a lot of people for a lot of years....and many had paper labels.
Google "vintage art tile" and see some of what's out there.
It's very nice....likely worth a couple hundred....treat it well!
