Border Tile 1881

This ceramic tile, created in 1881 by J. and J. G. Low Art Tile Works, is a beautiful example of decorative arts from the late 19th century. The tile features a repeating pattern of overlapping semicircles, evoking the look of fish scales. This design was common in the Arts and Crafts movement, which emphasized simple forms and natural motifs. The tile is a small but significant piece of decorative art, showcasing the artistry and skill of the Low brothers. The tile is currently on display at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
