Antique Majolica Tea Trivet – Bird and Butterfly

This majolica tea tile trivet depicts a bird and butterfly with a floral scene all done in the noted bright majolica colors. This 6″ diameter tile stands 3/4″ high supported by the pewter rim. This feature of the tile encircled by the pewter rim is a feature that I have not seen before. Notice the backside of the majolica tile is marked with the letters, ‘AD’. The tea tile is all original and in very good condition.
