FIG. 254. — BRICK AND TILE PAVING. 



Any person of inventive capacity and some skill in handicraft can make 

 delightful pavements with tesserae of pieces of broken roofing tiles. The tesserae 

 are prepared by cutting the pieces of tile into small cubes of approximately the 

 same size with a cold chisel and hammer ; they are then set to the pattern 

 desired in mortar or cement on a concrete bed prepared beforehand, and brought 

 up to a suitable level.
