    Hi, there. I've just acquired these tiles via auction; they were listed as "Art pottery tiles" with no additional information offered.

    They're irregular: approximately 3 3/4 square(ish) and around 1/2" thick. I've tried searching various databases to learn more, but haven't found anything similar enough to help identify manufacturer / approximate age. I'd be grateful for any help y'all might be able to furnish. Thanks so much for your consideration.

    They're either original mediaeval tiles or nice copies.

    Thanks for this, Ownedbybear. Any ideas about where I should send them for valuation? I have two more (duplicates of the dragon and frog pictured) which I'm going to sell.

    Ah, OK. I'm in the UK and there's museums I'd have suggested here. Not too sure what to suggest across the pond.
