Ornate 19th Century Figural Fireplace Tile Surround - Trent Tile Works
$899.00
These stunning Trent Tile Works figural tiles are from the late 1880s-early 1890s and were lovingly rescued from a gorgeous property in Garfield Park, Chicago shortly before the home was demolished. They are paired with a gentle mottled tile of the same era featuring an ivory background and light taupe olive mottle.
These tiles are in lovely condition for their age and feature intricate designs that can compliment many different home styles. I provided two different ideas for how these can be laid out within the photos.
The Trent Tile Company was first organized as the Harris Manufacturing Company, c. 1882, but soon had its name changed to Trent. By 1892 Trent operated 20 kilns--including six round biscuit kilns and upwards of a dozen enameling or English muffle kilns. By 1910 employed 300 workers.
All tiles in this set have been hand scraped of all loose dirt, mortar, and grout before receiving a thorough cleaning to remove soot, coal, and paint.
Salvaging these historic tiles in quantities large enough can be challenging, making this a rare and sought-after set. Each tile represents a piece of art and home history and offers a great way to bring ambiance and patina into your home.

Surround: 36" wide x 36" tall
