Vintage Besheer Art Tile iris pair featuring hand painted ceramic floral tiles measuring 4 x 8 inches, produced in the 1970s in Hudson, New Hampshire. This coordinating set includes two original studio art tiles, one with blue iris blossoms and one with yellow iris blossoms, each set against a glossy black background.

These vintage American studio pottery tiles were individually hand painted using vibrant enamel glazes, then kiln fired to permanently fuse the colors into the ceramic surface. The raised linework outlines the floral forms and creates depth and texture, a hallmark of Besheer Art Tile production. The saturated colors and high gloss finish remain vivid and intact decades later.

Both tiles are mounted on their original Masonite backings and retain their original Besheer Art Tile labels, confirming authenticity and period. The backs also feature felt feet, allowing the tiles to be displayed as wall decor or used as decorative heat resistant trivets.

This matching iris pair works beautifully as vertical wall art, Arts and Crafts style decor, or as collectible studio pottery tiles. The complementary blue and yellow iris designs make the set especially desirable for collectors of American art tiles or vintage floral ceramics.
