This handmade ceramic tile depicts the profile of a woman circa the Victorian era, and was created to adorn the facade of a fireplace. It can be used anywhere in your home to create a stunning centerpiece.

It was custom carved for the Ravenswood Historical Site in Livermore, CA., to sit opposite one of our other female portraits. The whole layout can be seen in the last photo.

The tile measures approximately 5 7/8" square, and is glazed in fern green glossy crackle glaze.

I carved the image in wax and then poured a plaster mould, which was then pressed into wet clay using our hand press. After first firing in our "bisque" fire, the tiles was glazed and re-fired to about 2150*F. A beautiful and permanent addition to any fireplace, kitchen, or bath.

Please convo me if you have any questions or special requests, and thanks for visiting!!
