Description

Color: Brown; White; Green; Red A border tile in the Bougainvillea series, produced by RTK Studios, ca. 1990s. Created by the black-line technique, the piece has dark brown borders at the top and bottom with interior lines of a lighter brown. Interwoven at the center over a light background are the vines, leaves and four bougainvillea flowers in brown, green and red colors, respectively. Some of the leaves and flowers, however, are of a darker hue than others and the border is much darker than the example in item 2.2. In good condition, the artifact has little evidence of damage or wear.
