<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ision, post: 2884605, member: 17064&quot;]The value of antique tiles is very dependent upon which manufacturer created them, and if a well known artist was involved in their designs.&nbsp; The BACK, or verso, of the tile should give the information required to value the tiles properly.&nbsp; Often, the creators of the tiles marked the backs, and the grip designs are often unique to specific makers.&nbsp; The thickness of the tiles and their dimensions, too...&nbsp; Whether they are encaustic and how many colors of clay are used.</p><p><br /></p><p>You must image the back of a tile in any attempt to market them.&nbsp; Also, if you wish to remove antique mortar from a tile, soak them in straight vinegar, as the acid will basically &quot;melt&quot; the mortar, so it may be washed off.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
