Some years ago we had met the contractor who was in charge of =3D
deconstructing
the Rookwood Pottery and he brought us several tiles of the tests. I =3D
found
them very interesting and a treasure to say the least. The glazes on the
tiles I have are green. There are also marking on them that make no =3D
sense to
me, however they must to the tester. They have the logo stamped on the
reverse side, with the reverse R and P inside the radiant marks in the
circle surrounding the letters.=3D20
