A decorative pair of c14th-century medieval encaustic earthenware floor tiles from northern France, featuring complementary Gothic quatrefoil designs with stylised fleur-de-lis and foliate ornament in contrasting pale clay against a dark brown glazed ground.

Each tile is decorated with sweeping intersecting arcs enclosing trefoil-shaped leaves and floral motifs. When arranged together, the designs form part of a larger repeating geometric pattern, variations of which are often found in medieval churches, abbeys and ecclesiastical buildings.
