RELIC ASYLUM
Tiles with past lives
The J. & J.G. Low Apple Blossom Surround, c. 1881–1884 — offered exclusively through Relic Asylum
Every Tile Carries a Story
Relic Asylum hunts, rescues and curates rare American architectural tile – the work of great potteries whose names echo through a century of craft.
Each piece survived demolition, neglect and forgetting. Each one tells its own story – of the kiln that fired it, the building it adorned, the hands that laid it a hundred years ago. Relic Asylum gives these pieces a second life and a new audience.
These are not reproductions. Every tile is original, authenticated and irreplaceable.
From the collection: the Swallows & Cattails surround · the Hamilton putti chariot · The Frog’s Wedding
