Brilliant blue dominant flowerhead and stylised foliage with a gothic influence against a really rare basket weave background. Brilliant glazes and well executed, quite possibly a design by Gordon Forsyth
Condition: Good Price: £100 (approx $200) Ref: 02575 The edges have been carefully fettled down a fraction, less than 1mm, for prior installation as have two corners and nibbled verso. There are several points of wear on the raised outline but mostly around the edges, only a little on the dominant flower. A little scuffing on the tip of green in the centre and a few other minor surface marks. A very clean tile with remarkable brilliance in the glazes.

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. Other marks described are usually not visible at all when the tile is viewed straight as one normally sees 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. The image is full size at 72 dpi (about 430 pixels wide) in maximum quality JPEG format. Customers may request a larger 120 dpi image also in maximum quality JPEG format for closer inspection which will be sent by email.
