Three tiny chips left side more on the edge than
the face, very light scratches which can only be
seen when caught in the light, other very minor
marks. Style:
Aesthetic movement A beautifully detailed aesthetic tile one of
a series of twelve that are quite rarely found,
lovely pictures representing idyllic country
life and its closeness to nature. Featuring a
multitude of elements, scenes of country
landscapes, children playing outdoors, floral
and fauna a ram, butterflies and flowers with
five different stylised floral and geometric
borders. A fun and entertaining tile in nice
colours the dark brown print showing well
against the buff clay body. Excellent in brown too, the colour that
printed the clearest and the most natural, blue
the colour most often found and whilst the
colour is popular I'm less keen on its use for
pictorial subjects. Verso very clean, embossed Minton etc.
