Detectives investigating the murder of wealthy Perth woman Annabelle Chen are looking at whether tiles found in the suitcase containing her body came from a house she used to own.
The Wellington St home in leafy Mosman Park appears to contain the same green ceramic distinctive floral tiles in its bathroom.
Ms Chen's body was found in the Swan River on July 2 but she was only identified last week after her Melbourne-based daughter reported her missing.
The 57-year-old was divorced and living in nearby Meath Mews at the time of her death but previously owned the Wellington St house.
The daughter who reported her missing said she last saw her mother alive during a visit on June 30.
Two days later Ms Chen was found dead in the Swan River near her home with injuries suggesting a violent death.
The tiles in the house were one of many lines of inquiry detectives were following, a police spokesman said.
Ms Chen was described as wealthy, spiritual and a talented artist who was estranged from Perth family members including her children.
