Low Fell, Gateshead

Tessellated tiled entrance vestibule

I came across this nice example of a tessellated encaustic tiled floor in a stunning Victorian house in Gateshead a few years ago. The Minton type geometric pattern incorporates a star and block design consistent with the period of the property. It was also common for this flooring to continue into the hallway which no doubt provided a striking first impression for visitors.
