Very tiny rim chip upper right, very clean and
bright. Style: Floral A good arts & crafts style floral design
of carnations that fills the tile. In stencilled
slip and a complex and effective example of the
genre. Nice blue flowerheads the foliage forming
the perfect backdrop. Usually known as Marsden's patent this is not
the case apparently due to a published
misreading of the patent. Stencilling was a
great way to produce striking designs with crisp
outlines and was a means of bringing new designs
into production quickly. As a consequence there
were thousands of such designs by Wedgwood, few
are found with any frequency, there is a
surprisingly wide variety of designs and they
are a great interest for collectors. Verso very clean, unmarked generic rail
pattern. Known rail pattern for Wedgwood as the
"No. 5" mark and the painted pattern number is
in the series. One very tiny rim chip, some very tiny surface
chips and a little slight wear to the decoration,
very clean and bright. Condition: Excellent Flake at top right corner, touch of glaze loss
to the stem near mid right, a couple of other
minute rim chips. Surface condition is very near
perfect, an exceedingly clean and brilliant
tile.
