Black Spanish Table by Taylor

Black Spanish Geometric Table by TaylorThis table and the next one are both created by Taylor Tilery (1930 - 1941). Four corner and two stretcher tiles in Spanish design create a nice oval image, the ring of fire. The corner tile with different glazes appears on page 161 of the California Tile, The Golden Era 1910-1940 (vol. 2). In the Taylor catalog the designs are marked as #147 Corner and #147 Stretcher.

The tiles are set in a fairly simple mahogany frame. The wood is in excellent condition, while the tiles have very tight surface hairlines that, I suspect, don't go all the way through.

  • Dimensions: 18 1/4" x 12 1/4" (not including the wooden edge); six 5 7/8" tiles
  • Acquired: Palo Alto, California, April 2014
