Hand-Painted Floral Keyrack
This line-drawn Three Flowers Tiles and center Bouquet Tile are from a series designed for the Sarah Caulkins Johnson House in Detroit’s Indian Village Historic District, not far from Pewabic Pottery. These designs later appeared as an element in many of Pewabic’s private installations including kitchens and bathrooms during the 1920s-50s.
Each tile rests in a quarter-sawn white oak Arts and Crafts-style key rack that is handcrafted by a Detroit-area woodworker using a five-part finishing process with a historic lacquer finish. The four wrought iron nail hooks ensure, as Ben Franklin said, there’s “A place for everything and everything in its place.”
