I wonder if it also keeps cell phones from ringing during

Amazing! Never heard of cast iron walls.
Interesting photo, too. I like the muted lighting.
During the first half of the 19th century they used wrought iron and
cast iron the way we use plastic today.
The tiles might be wrought iron stampings rather than cast iron. They
might even be early steel stampings.
