Description

4x3 replica in 10 cm glazed tiles, with a total dimension of 40x30 cm, of the iconic Nitrato do Chile advertising tile.

The Chilean Nitrate panels are a classic of the Portuguese roads. Through old photographs, it's possible to prove the existence of these panels at least since 1948. It is believed that the original design was conceived by Adolfo López-Durán Lozano in 1929. These panels are part of our collective memory and, as such, should be preserved, whenever possible, in their original location.

About the production
