Very tiny chip bottom left corner, few very tiny
glaze flakes to the rim, white spot right side is a
glaze blow. Style: Art
nouveau This design I can't recall seeing before a
few months ago and then how things happen
another small group comes along. I do rather
like it, a quirky, fun design, a little petite
but you can readiy imagine how the corner motifs
would combine in a larger spread, fully art
nouveau. A fabulous colourway, such bronze-like
glaze colours are rarely seen, the turquoise
relieves the restrained tones like precious
stones in a metal ornament. Verso unusual for Boote, I wouldn't have
recognised the tile as being by them if not for
the earlier group bought. It is just possible
there is another explanation such as a design
made by Boote for a third party and so also made
by another but there are other characteriistics
that indicate Boote!
