A super design in great colours, nice mauve fruit, very brilliant green on the leaf and most appropriate burgundy background, a great tile for wine buffs. Mostly indented moulding with little more than the outline embossed creating great shading and variation on the fruits. Lea & Boulton are an underrated company who made super tiles in a variety of techniques and who probably made tiles for better known brand names. Verso very clean with embossed L & B T and England. Condition: Very fine Edge chip upper right side, minute glaze chips top left corner and bottom edge, four minute chips on the outline otherwise the surface is near perfect. A nice clean tile with excellent brilliance in the glazes, the burgundy is especially good.

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. |
