This first tile may be decorated with the image of a broom-maker.
I'm not sure who this image represents on this second tile, but it appears to be a nobleman.
This is a close-up of the ox-head corner motif.
I like speculating about the origins of these tiles. Are they English or Dutch? How old are they? I haven't be able to answer these questions yet. May be some day...

And I thought Delft was just blue and white. Love the crazing I see on the close up.
These are beautiful...I've never seen these tiles in any other color but blue. I love the yellows and greens!
Pretty images the corner design is so pretty, it would be fun to learn more about them
