Amirthaswamy Pillai ( in picture - top ) introduced fully glazed "Athangudi Tiles" not less than 80 years ago. This was started when the government of Great Britain was ruling India. Initially everything were not going well for him to popularize his newly introduced flower tile works. But very soon, it became famous in the midst of not only the ordinary people living around him, but the important persons everywhere in the society, including, the Englishmen, rulers and Landlords.
Mr. Pillai was better known for his work with quality and punctuality on delivering the manufactured tiles. His lifetime is being praised till now, by many the long time customers of Athangudi Tiles. After he passed away, his son Late, Mr. Selva ( in picture ) continued his works to make the monument alive.
