Large and heavy tile possibly used in ceilings. Unknown place of production and unknown provenance. Some of these tiles appeared in the antique trade in Barcelona. They have pink like clay and white-grayish tone of glaze and small “dimples” certainly formed by overcooking. The decoration is in two shades of blue, only takes up the central part, leaving visible broad white margins, so it is assumed they were placed on beams on the ceiling. Some show human figures, others birds or mammals, a possible origin could be Triana. (Seville) This tile painted with angel is cut to right side, it also has a large glaze chip to top right corner.
