It's made from encaustic floor tiles. I am told that the tiles were made by Minton

from designs by Augustus Welby Northmore Pugin

From The Columbia Guide to Standard American English (1993):

LONG S, ROUND S

Long s is one form of the letter s that was used in printing and writing English both here [America] and abroad until the end of the eighteenth century. The long s looked like a lowercase printed f, but with the crossbar only on the left of the letter; it was used initially and medially but never finally in a word, so sisters looked like this: fifters. In contrast, the s we now use everywhere was then used at the ends of words and called a round s.
