A striking collection of square glazed ceramic tiles bearing the artist's stamp on the reverse acquired directly from an artist's showroom in Rio de Janeiro, each featuring boldly graphic stylized bird motifs — phoenix, tropical birds, and ceremonial figures — rendered in intricate dotted and linear henna-inspired linework against rich grounds of burnt orange, olive green, and deep burgundy. Brass-edged framing on each tile elevates them to ready-to-display wall art. Bearing the artist's stamp on the reverse. No two tiles are identical — each design is its own composition. An exceptional find with direct provenance from the source.
Time Period: Vintage / Late 20th
Origin: Brazil — acquired from artist's showroom, Rio de Janeiro
Design Style: Brazilian Folk Art / Indigenous-Inspired / Graphic Art
Condition: Excellent — glaze vivid and pristine; brass edges intact; acquired directly from artist.
Provenance: Acquired firsthand from an artist's showroom in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The motifs draw on a rich visual tradition blending Brazilian indigenous iconography with the bold graphic language of folk and popular art. The combination of jewel-toned grounds — orange, green, burgundy — with intricate dotted ceremonial bird imagery reflects a distinctly Brazilian sensibility that sits confidently at the intersection of craft and contemporary art. Pieces with this level of direct artist provenance are rare on the secondary market.
