Abstract Metal Industrial 12 in. sq. Vintage outlet Ceiling Tin Tiles, 150 yrs. country decor wall statement, Recycled Birthday Anniversary Gifts

Having collected antique ceiling tin for over 30 years you start to become an expert in many different things. One quality and there are many, just like in all old architectural fragments is surface patina. Another words how the metal survived, what conditions man-made or otherwise that changed it's surface appearance, size, pattern etc. over the decades
These rich, rustic earthy pieces I have photographed here, are some of my all time favorites. After 130 years on a ceiling in a commercial location no two pieces regardless of size look the same. Although as an artist I take great pride in my glazing process and have sold thousands of pieces (soft white tiles featured ) I am very intrigued when you come across a few rare tin panel tiles in any whole ceiling that are works of art without ever being touched by the artist's hand. These natural patina pewter colored 12 inch sq. tins are that.
Give the gift of American history this Christmas or on any other occasion. These "Wheel of Time" tin tiles are created by me in many glaze color genres and sizes as well as if you look through my Etsy gallery you will see them in my Best selling collages.
Tin ceiling tiles were produced in factories around the time of the civil war in America, that my friends is a very long road to ending up as an "object de art" on your home or offices wall in 2015. Some of the great beauty of vintage ceiling tin is the limited supply existing today and the number of interesting patterns that survived.
For your visual excitement, I have mixed my white and neutral glazed tin tile with the natural patina tile on my gallery wall. It is a great composition of shades of black, white, and tan.
