Minor marks to left corners otherwise very near
perfect. Style: Arts
& crafts A superb arts & crafts tile from the
greatest art tile specialists of the late 19th
and early 20th centuries. Very bright, atypical
for the process, and most brilliantly glazed.
Entirely hand-made with plastic clay body and
painted barbotine decoration, featuring a nature
study design of flowers and foliage. Mostly
decorated with warm earth tone colours with
superb lemon yellow flowers and finished with a
most brilliant glaze. More arts & crafts than tiles by the arts
& crafts mass producers William de Morgan
& Co. and Morris & Co, closer to wares
by potters Martin Bros. and Burmantofts. Most of
William de Morgan's tiles were merely painted to
traced outlines, this was copied from the
pattern book by hand. Versos very clean just some sliight stain,
staffordshire know embossed, incised pattern
number. Two tiny, two very tiny rim chips, surface near
perfect.
