The ceramic exterior, simulating a turn-of-the-century (gaudy) palace, is made of thousands of Belgian and French ceramic tiles, bought in Paris. The weight bearing iron structure, was bought in London. The edifice was purchased in Europe and shipped in little pieces, like a puzzle, assembled in situ between 1894 and 1896.
