Description

DECOS TILE WITH LARGE AND SMALL FLORAL DESIGNS Color: Green; Purple; Red; Yellow A Decos tile with large and small floral patterns, produced by the RTK Studios, ca. 1990s. The square tile has a symmetrical design in a black-line technique. At one side is a ruled border with alternating floral patterns, one being a cross-shaped purple flower and the other a four-part green flower with red circular centers. Borders of brown edges are above and below these. At the other side are larger three-petaled flowers, also alternating, though the outer examples are only half-visible and are green, while the center flower is yellow. Purple bands with red center are partially visible at the lower left and right, as well. The background of the panel is a mustard yellow color. In good condition, the artifact has little indication of wear or damage.
