Handmade Tiles by Theresa Mustafa
Places I’ve visited over the years (as often as possible) that you might also like!
Moravian Pottery & Tile Works, Doylestown, PA
Built over 100 years ago and currently an active museum operated by Bucks County Parks Department that is still producing original designs of Henry Mercer. Visit in mid-May when the Moravian Tile Festival is happening!

“The Moravian Pottery and Tile Works, a National Historic Landmark, is maintained as a "working history" museum by Pennsylvania's County of Bucks, Department of Parks and Recreation. Handmade tiles are still produced in a manner similar to that developed by the pottery's founder and builder, Henry Chapman Mercer (1856-1930). Mercer was a major proponent of the Arts & Crafts Movement in America. He directed the work at the pottery from 1898 until his death in 1930.”
Fonthill Castle, Doylestown, Pennsylvania
Built between 1908-1912 by Henry Chapman Mercer (1856-1930), Fonthill Castle is not far from the Moravian Pottery and Tile Works. Fonthill Castle is filled with his tile designs, tiles collected on his travels around the world, innovative architectural designs for his day, and much more!
