Antique "Luxfer Prism Co." 4" x 4" Glass Tile - Frank Lloyd Wright "Flower Pattern"
This Is An Antique Item
Frank Lloyd Wright designed "Flower Pattern" Luxfer glass tiles, c. 1897. Luxfer Prism Tiles were often used in commercial applications such as storefronts and skylights. The Luxfer Prism Company was founded in 1897, originally known as the Radiating Light Company. The addition of horizontal grooves into the back side of square glass tiles redirected sunlight into rooms where dim electric lights were inadequate, when compared to the output of todays electrical fixtures. Luxfer is well known for their association with Frank Lloyd Wright, who designed some of their "Iridian" prism tiles. While he developed 41 patented designs, only the 'Flower Pattern" was actually produced. One shown in the photo however they are sold individually, we do have a quantity of them available.
