Two marks near the top edge are manufacturing
flaws, two very tiny chips on the right, two very
tiny glaze chips on the bottom. Near perfect
surface condition, very clean and bright. Style: Art
Nouveau Fabulous colourful bold and dramatic art
nouveau tile. Superb styling, whiplash stems at
the base, then rising erect with various
stylised leaf shapes culminating in a generous
flowerhead with graduated colours and
differently coloured stamens. Very rare mauve
background colour especially for this date, six
colours altogtether which itself is most
unusual, it is most unlikely to see this colour
arrangement again on any design of tile. Verso is very clean with design registration
number in the bead shape reserve which indicates
a manufacturing date soon after the design
registration as it seems from 1907 Richards used
a circular rd number die.
