HEATH CERAMICS EDITH HEATH-HANDMADE TILE-ARTIST SIGNED AND INSCRIBED- 1971 is a rare opportunity to grace your home with a one-of-a-kind framed ceramic tile crafted by the hands of Edith Kiertzner Heath in December 1971. This writer worked at Heath Ceramics in 1971-72 while doing graduate studies at a nearby seminary. During the holiday season of 1971 Edith presented this tile to me as a personal gift. In the photo of the back of the tile you will see her inscription of my name in pencil - Darryl Newhouse. In the front photo you will find her signature -HEATH '71. This tile embodies Edith's distinctive speckle pattern which became the hallmark of her work. She was indeed a trailblazer as she led the mid-20th century California pottery movement with her award-winning "Heath Ceramics" tablewear and architectural tiles. Her designs quickly attracted the attention of Frank Lloyd Wright, who specified Heath dinnerware for some of his projects. I am now retired, and it is time to size down and travel a little lighter. This precious work of art measures 12" x 12" and weighs 3# 10oz. It will be meticulously packed and shipped UPS Ground. Please note that I sell in the USA only and I accept PayPal or USPS Postal Money Orders only. I will ship this treasure to you from my smoke-free home on the Monterey Bay in California. Thanks for
