Condition Report

Small chip bottom right corner, small surface chip apparently where a piece of kiln dirty has come away, about half a dozen pieces of kiln dirty remain. One minute surface mark near the left edge otherwise surface condition is perfect without wear, rubbing or scratches. A wonderful tile with brilliant red and extremely high gloss glazes.

 

A characteristic art nouveau design with stems and leaves of a Mackintosh-like form with five petalled pansy-like flowers. A popular design from T & R Boote which is quite often found with green or cream backgrounds and flowers of various colours but is rare with this crimson coloured ground. A particularly excellent red it is too especially as Boote's red are often less bright and glossy.

Verso perfectly clean, Boote greyhound badge.

 


The image is a little oversize rather than cropped close to the edges so that the edges can easily be seen and any chips etc can be quickly spotted. Other marks described are usually not visible at all when the tile is viewed straight as one normally sees it and can only be seen with a critical eye when the tile is tilted to catch imperfections in reflected light. For more details of how we describe marks see Condition.

The image is full size at 72 dpi (about 430 pixels wide) in maximum quality JPEG format. Customers may request a larger 120 dpi image also in maximum quality JPEG format for closer inspection which will be sent by email.
