Vintage glazed ceramic art tile signed “E. Mixandidou”, the Greek artist also known internationally as Helen Melichiades (sometimes listed as Michaelides/Melichiades). The name Helen was used for broader, non-Greek audiences, while E. Mixandidou appears on original works as her authentic signature.
This piece features a stylized mid-century modern female figure holding a pitcher, accented with floral elements and rich, hand-applied glazes. The raised outlines and bold colors give the tile a stained-glass or cloisonné-style appearance.
Mounted in a simple wooden frame (incomplete) and ready to display, this is a strong example of mid-century studio pottery / folk-modern ceramic art.
