About the Item
This is a 19th-century Polish terrazzo tile, dating to around the 1880s, originally used in a synagogue. The rectangular tile features a light blue background adorned with a white Star of David enclosed within a circle at its center. The design is flanked by horizontal white stripes, creating a sense of symmetry and highlighting the central motif. The geometric and minimalist design reflects a balance of functionality and symbolic artistry, characteristic of decorative elements in synagogues of the period.
The tile shows slight signs of wear, indicative of its historical age and long-term use. Such tiles were commonly part of synagogue floors or walls, serving both decorative and symbolic purposes in Jewish architecture of Eastern Europe. The craftsmanship and design align with the rich Jewish cultural heritage and the artistic trends of late 19th-century Poland.
