This Art Nouveau ceramic tile by Utzschneider & Co., Sarreguemines, France features a stylised floral motif rendered in soft relief. The design is dominated by flowing, symmetrical lily forms, their elegant curves outlined in lighter slip against a warm terracotta-red ground with subtle mottling. The raised decoration and gentle colour gradation give the tile a sculptural quality, typical of Sarreguemines production around the turn of the 20th century. Both decorative and architectural in character, the tile reflects the organic lines and refined craftsmanship that define French Art Nouveau ceramics.
