Charming Ceramic Tile Top Coffee Table
This charming coffee table is a clever combination of fine European hardwood and beautiful ceramic tile. The body and legs of this piece are made from fine oak. Look at the stable legs and stretchers; this sturdy piece was truly made to last. The most outstanding feature of this table is the lovely ceramic tile on the tabletop. The earliest attempts at ceramic art included enameled tiles. Tiles of ancient Roman origin and of the Moors are splendid specimens of this kind of decoration. Many so-called encaustic tiles followed by inlaid tiles with lead glaze were made in medieval times in the monasteries in England. Old delft tiles are other good examples. Encaustic and other tiles were made in the 19th century at Minton's and other potteries in England. We do not know the origin of these particular tiles, however, they are quite beautiful. Two hand-painted flowers grace selections of this tile for an elegant feel. This table would make a perfect addition to your home!!
