| In 1897, Frank Lloyd Wright drew 41 designs for the Luxfer Prism Company. Only the first (No. 27,977) was produced. The patent describes it as having "lines of ornamentation produced upon the prism-light by variations in the surface-levels. These ornamental lines take the form of circles, arcs of circles, squares, and the like, arranged concentrically about the center C and interlacing or overlapping each other. The whole forms a grid-like sort of ornament." This pattern became one of Luxfer's standard accent tiles and was mass produced. It is fairly common today, but often fetches prices disproportionate to its numbers due to being a FLW design. |
