The lotus flower is the Ancient Egyptian equivalent of our rose: the queen of flowers. The waterlily, the Egyptian rendering of which still survives in the name "Susanna", was particularly popular. This piece, in multicoloured faience, was intended to be an inlay for a stove.

La fleur de lotus est l'équivalent égyptien de notre rose: La reine des fleurs. Le nénuphar, la version égyptienne de ce qui a survécu sous le nom de "Susanna", était tout particulièrement populaire. Cette pièce, en faïence multicolore, devait servir d'incrustation.

Der Lotos war den Ägyptern das, was uns die Rose ist: die Königin der Blumen. Insbesondere die Teichrose, deren ägyptische Bezeichnung noch im Namen "Susanna" weiterlebt, erfreute sich größter Beliebtheit. Die vorliegende mehrfarbige Fayence-Ausführung war zur Einlage in Kachel bestimmt.
