Description

Original floral-pattern floor tile manufactured for use in the first-class smoking room on board Titanic, measuring 12 x 12, nicely mounted and framed (sans glass) with an image of the smoking room to an overall size of 18.25 x 27.75. I. In fine condition, with separations to the frame corners, in no way affecting the tile itself. After workers finished laying the smoking room floor, the leftover tiles were used to tile the floors of various executive offices at the Harland & Wolff Shipyards, including the office of Titanic's builder Mr. Thomas Andrews. In the early 1970s when Harland & Wolff was renovating their office space, a few of the remaining Titanic tiles were taken up and released for sale.
