An excellent majolica tile designed by Lewis Day for Pilkington illustrating the flower of the Tulip Tree. The design confuses many, it is seen incorrectly oriented, and is oft called art nouveau yet it has no style for it is a literal representation of the flower as it appears in nature. That in itself is rare for a tile pattern as most designs are slightly modified, adjusted one may say, the correct term being conventionalised where the subject is modified to fit the available space whilst retaining its essential characteristics.

Verso near perfectly clean, embossed P in opposing corners and design registration number, pattern number in pencil.
