The Moravian Pottery & Tile Works: A Working
History Museum
2007 Special Edition - "Spring"
Our latest Special Edition 2007 Spring Tile, designed by Head Ceramist Adam Zayas, is the first release of a new four part Seasons series . It is available
for a limited time only from November 24th 2006 until December 31st,
2007. This design was inspired by earlier tile themes created by Henry Chapman Mercer (1856-1930), the founder of the Moravian Pottery and Tile Works. Sowing seed, an ancient symbol of spring often depicted in European medieval art, appealed to Mercer's fascination with pre-industrial methods of labor. The proceeds from this tile are used to support the restoration
of our historic building. This tile is available only in our Blue Underglaze color. $35.00 plus shipping and tax if appropriate.
