Overview

These antique Delft wall tiles were made around 1900 and depict pastoral scenes of shepherds with their cattle. The 'cattle' are actually sheep, iconicly often confused by many as 'snails'. The scenes are painted in a somewhat impressionist way in a cobalt shade of blue. The shade of white is bright and consistent, which is typical for this time period.

  • Product disclaimer

    Antique tiles
    Antique tiles are handmade, so variations in color, size and texture are to be expected. Also, due to the age of the items, small chips and signs of use are common and considered to be part of antique tiles and the overall experience. Our tiles have been rinsed and cleaned intensely, making them suitable to be reused. However, we can never guarantee that all traces of sooth, salt or other forms of pollution have completely been extracted from the tiles. We expect our customers to be aware of this matter.

    Color accuracy
    Due to the relative inconsistencies of various display monitors, the colors you see on your screen may not be a totally accurate reproduction of the actual product. We strive to make our colors as accurate as possible, but screen images are intended as a guide only and should not be regarded as absolutely correct.
