Small fragment of a green monochrome square tile. Small portions of the front surface peeled, with the flaking of both slip and glaze. Moulded relief decoration probably representing a quadruped. The central motif is enclosed in a beaded frame. None of the tiles of the House of Lustreware was found in situ, therefore their use remains uncertain. An ongoing study conducted by A. Fusaro re-examines the topic on the basis of the archaeological data.
