The photo's don't do this gorgeous piece justice. This beautiful tile depicts a cactus flower I believe, the colours are spectacular, especially in the light.
It's a pottery tile, with a thick, textured, glassy crackled glaze, it's most unusual. It has the impressed Karlsruhe backstamp along with the pattern number 7162.
I think this was made somewhere in the 1960's or 70's. I believe it was designed by Werner Meschede who worked there up until 1981. This is a superb mid century modern piece of art that would look fantastic on any wall. You will struggle to find another like this. This is one of my favourite items that I have listed for sale!
