Made in the 1850s shortly after Prosser's Patent expired in 1854. The design in black in the Mintons catalogue with pattern number 794, different colourways had different numbers. The colour is close to the popular chocolate brown but a little darker, so dark chocolate. It is printed overglaze which suggests that it was technically not possible to put it underglaze so to achieve the required colour required a third lower 'enamel temperature' firing. The only one we got, it's a rare tile, we do find a few rarities because we keep looking!
