Fabulous Pomegranate themed tile that could date to the late 1870s. A beautiful subdued palette on a striking black ground with gold metallic accents. While the manufacturer of this paper is not known, it is consistent with English examples of the late 1870s and early 1880s - the Pomegranate was a common English motif of the time, and the 18-3/4" pattern width is atypical for American papers.
