Condition: Excellent Excellent condition, a little surface wear, some
minor marks around the rim from the original
fitting.
Style/technique: Pictorial print &
tint Certainly quite a rarity, 6" x 12" transfer
prints are uncommon, many are 6" x 6" skillfully
painted out to fill the larger tile, many are
split for 6" x 6" tiles or I should say
presumably split for they may have been two
separate 6" x 6" prints. Topping off the rarity
is that this is plastic clay with a combed
verso, the regular 3/8" thickness so made for
regular wall and fireplace use.
Price: £125 (approx $164)
Ref no: #04673
Manufacturer: Unattributed
Dimensions: 6"
x 6"
Date: circa
1885
A not previously seen tile with a
pastoral scene of a farmhouse. Entitled
'Evening' in bottom left corner, perhaps an
illegible preceding word could be Lane which
again may have had a missing preceding word.
There's a thumbprint in the paint that corner
too, probably that of the painter.
