Only the very slightest of marks. Style:
Floral An excellent and rare floral tile from one of
the most outstanding manufacturers of the late
nineteenth century. Free hand painted in slips
on a plain body the design bright and cheerful
against a hand painted dappled ground which is
nicely done, all too often dappling can look
rather naive even crude. The slight relief
created by the slips rather than on a moulded
body as most barbotine painted tiles are, and
painted without the use of an outline or
pouncing for having two to compare the hand of
the artist is clearly apparent. Verso near perfectly clean, embossed Craven
Dunnil etc, painted pattern number.
