Do see my pictures as they are the best description of the condition of your item.

The ink stamp on the back of one of the tile frames reads:

Furniture maker

D.L. LOOIJENGA

Leeuwarden (a town in northern Holland)

(followed by the street address)

Looijuenga is not a rare surname in Holland.

It most likely refers to the name of the retail shp that sold these tiles in the aftermarket as they salvaged or reclaimed the tiles from an old home or building

The corner motif seems to be a bumble bee,

or perhaps the spider (spinnenkopje) motif (simplified mirrored curls and dots resembling a small spider or web cluster) which was popular starting in the 1640s

These are simple pastoral scenes quite popular in the 17th century.

Of course, these were hand-painted.

I have never removed the back-board so I do not know what marking might be on the back of the clay tile.
