Registered Designs Collecting registered design numbers is one of the few and the best and most accessible way to precisely date tile designs. A collectin of registered designs gives a sense of design history, of interest to collectors and is essential for students of the developments of applied art of the late 19th and early 20th centuries from around 1870 to 1915. This was the period in which industrialisation extended the reach of art and design to everyone thereby creating the first truly popular styles.
