set of 5 art nouveau tiles depicting woman and flowers. The design is by Carl Sigmund Luber, artistic director of the artistic faience department at Johann von Schwarz in Nuremberg. He worked for this company from 1896 until the closure of the artistic department in 1906. These tiles are also pictured in Carl sigmund Luber, his life and work as an artist for the Art Nouveau ceramics of Johann von Schwarz, 1896-1906, published 2006, page 120. The tiles were once part of a piece of furniture. Condition is very fine, with only a few very light scratches to fragile dark red background glaze.
