Tame birds sing of freedom.
Wild birds fly.

This is only a small portion of the artwork/painting that covers the Rookwood Pottery Building. I love it...the colors, size and style. Their flagship location is an 88,000 square foot building in the Over-the-Rhine neighborhood of Cincinnati, Ohio.
Rookwood Pottery was first founded in 1880 by the pioneering artist Maria Longworth-Nichols. It was actually the first female run manufacturing facility in the United States.
They don’t make as much beautiful art tile as they used to. They have changed to more modern, dinnerware and kitchen/bath tile. When I visited in October of 2023, I bought two pieces of Rookwood tile and a few Motawi tiles to bring home. Pretty on Black.
