Description
The label on back of tile reads...
The true meaning behind Celtic designs & legends is lost in the mists of history, little real documentary evidence exists today. Whatever the thoughts in the minds of those artists long ago we encourage you to enjoy their beauty and dream your own thoughts.
The Salmon appears widely in Celtic art and in legend. It is always associated with wisdom and knowledge.
The famous Celtic legend tells of the hero Fionn mac Cumhail an apprentice to the Druid Finneigeas. After the Druid caught the illusive "Salmon of Knowledge" he left Fionn to cook it for him. After Fionn touched the cooked fish and put his thumb into his mouth he immediately gained all the salmon's knowledge that the Druid had been seeking for himself.
We make our tiles from stoneware clay, they are individually hand crafted and are twice fired in our kilns. The Parchment tiles are made with rough torn edges which gives a unique artistic form. They are mounted on a 7 1/2 inches square black wood frame. A wall hanging clip, rubber wall protectors and a descriptive label (see individual tile picture for details) is attached to the back of the frame.
All tiles are Individually Boxed.
