We are often asked for information about many tiles from all around the world, we can not offer free advice as it takes time and effort and there is no benefit for us, in other words it costs us money for no return on the investment.

For an appraisal we charge £10 (approx $20). This will include the likely age usually to within five years, manufacturing technique, manufacturer if known and valuations at key stages in the supply chain. If known we will advise the designer or reputed designer, very few tiles can be attributed to a particular designer with any accuracy. We will likely include other notes such as relative rarity and references in standard literature.

If we are interested in buying we will say so and if subsequently bought the appraisal fee(s) refunded. We will offer up to 25% more in part exchange for tiles we have for sale.

We are specialist in glazed wall/fireplace/furniture tiles from the 19thC and early 20thC up to about 1920, other tiles we can not provide as full information.
