Lea & Boulton Art Nouveau Poppy Tile Winter Nice older tile from theA luscious Art Nouveau design of poppy pods graces the face of this tile made by Lea and Boulton (1896 1902). The tile measures 6" square. I have several of these tiles available. They came from a wash stand making the surfaces unworn and the backs clean. Each tile has one or two clipped corners, showing where the panel was held onto the stand with a screw and washer. When the light hits these just right the green and blue glazes have a luster effect.
