A near invisible hairline crack from just below the top of the left side to the left shoulder in this strong porcelain tile of no threat and the tile rings true. A group of very tiny chips around the bottom left corner, very tiny chip bottom right corner, other very minor marks, Surface is excellent apart from a couple of light scratches across his leg.

A great picture tile in the arts & crafts taste of a minstrel seated on a stool between two sunflowers lost in the music. Most unusually matt glazed and in hushed tones and with the pure white body first painted in a cream background, quite rare decorating style for the times. Good subtlety and gradients in the painting as typical for Copeland not the usual print & tint colour wash. A more typical blue printed example is illustrated in Lockett on page 190.

The body is handmade porcelain of tile thickness, combed and stamped Copeland.
