American Arts and Crafts Tile of a Turtle and Baby Mosaic Tile Company A massive Arts and CraftsA charming one of a kind hand made tile depicts a tortoise with its baby coming out from an egg. The image is deeply carved, the brick red background and one side is stippled with a stiff brush. There are two manufactured holes for mounting. Measures 6 1 2" tall, 6" wide and 3 4" thick.
