Pleasing border tile with seed pods on a stem against a particularly pleasant mid blue background.

 

 

Condition: Very good

Price: £30 (approx $57)

Ref: 00121

Short strip of roughness on the bottom edge and another just up the right edge, half a dozen tiny/very tiny edge chips. Some wear to the high points, mostly around the seed pod openings but also on the right edge of the top left leaf nevertheless the surface condition is generally excellent. A nice clean tile with good brilliance in the glazes.

The image is full size at 72 dpi (about 430 pixels wide) in maximum quality JPEG format. A larger 120 dpi image also in maximum quality JPEG format can be forwarded by email if required.

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. Light surface marks described are not visible at all when a tile is viewed straight as one would normally see 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.
