Condition Report

About half a dozen edge/corner chips, one small the rest very tiny or lesser. Kiln dirty near right edge otherwise perfect surface, very clean and bright.

 
A very pretty and quite charming design of a pair of birds on a flower with butterfly nearby nicely printed in dark brown and coloured with four bright colours and brilliantly glazed. A rarely found design and by a virtually heard of manufacturer Charles Timmis who are recorded as being tile and earthenware manufacturers from Longton (now part of Stoke upon Trent). Most likely they decorated bought in biscuit.

Verso slightly smoke stained, standard grid, printed pattern number (registration number known from another example).


The image is full size at 72 dpi (about 430 pixels wide) in maximum quality JPEG format and on screen is about the size as it would be in real life at the same distance. 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. 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.
