Each tile features a stylised vase with a flaring neck and rounded body, outlined in black and set within a symmetrical floral arrangement of scrolling vines, serrated leaves, and delicate blossoms. The composition is framed by a continuous black border, with subtle craquelure throughout, indicative of age. The tiles, once part of a larger architectural scheme, retain their original vibrancy despite some areas of wear and minor restoration along the edges.
