Description :

Pair of handcrafted studio pottery art tiles attributed to Matthew Patton of Orcas Island, Washington. This decorative pair includes one abstract garden-inspired tile in vibrant shades of blue, teal, green, and burgundy, along with a companion tile featuring two stylized red beets. Both display Patton's signature raised-glaze technique and retain their original hanging hardware, making them suitable for wall display or decorative trivets.

These colorful ceramic tiles exemplify Pacific Northwest studio pottery from the late 20th century and are sought after for their handcrafted quality and bold, nature-inspired designs.

HISTORICAL NOTE
