Stove tile plate with foot is held by National Museum of Romanian History. Museum description: Rectangular stove tile plate, the decoration is in relief. Two circular arcs are identified, each on one half of the tile; arcs that intersect with four other arcs in each of the corners.

In the spaces defined by these circular arcs are plant motifs (leaves and flowers). In the center is a star, and above and below it are two studs; between the three elements is a network of longitudinal stripes. On the face of the tile are traces of smoke, as well as on its back. The foot is preserved over the entire surface of the tile, along with traces of five other small feet. The museum record gives measurements L=226; LA=224; I=35; GR=6; length: 226 mm; width: 224 mm; thickness: 6 mm; height: 35 mm.

These details come from the holding museum's own record; how far this object represents a wider collectible type has not yet been independently verified.
