Art Nouveau designs from Maw are rather
uncommon but this is a good one and is decorated
in an unusual manner. It appears to have a
printed brown outline and the other colours to
have been painted through a stencil. Brushmarks
are clearly visible in the leaves and plums (we
had four tiles to compare) and the stippled
effect in the flowerhead is clearly intended to
vary from tile to tile. Another example of Maws
diversity of and experimentation with production
techniques that in turn produced some innovative
art tiles.
