Vintage Sailboat Tile by Karlsruhe I think this is a fitting image for the last full week of Summer. Well, the unofficial Summer anyways. The time between Memorial Day and Labor Day is high season at the beaches. The big social season. As I get older I prefer the quieter times, and sitting on a beach or at the edge of a lake and just looking at the water or the sailboats satisfies me. This vintage tile designed by Fridegart Glatzle for Karlsruhe Pottery pretty much sums it up. When the weather gets colder I can still gaze at this plaque and think of the calmness and enveloping warmth of Summer. Click the link below to learn more about this antique tile.
