• Style/technique: Aesthetic floral print • Manufacturer: Minton Hollins • Dimensions: 6" x 6" • Date: design registered 1880	A nice victorian aesthetic fruit tile printed in black on off-white. A full depiction of gooseberries within three stylised borders each with corner motifs, this to my recollection is the only transfer printed tile featuring gooseberries. One of a series designed by John Windsor Bradburn for Minton Hollins and with his distinctive style. Not a formal series as such although several were registered on the same day however they do have a sense of unity about them and would make a great collection or fitting. I can well imagne them in an aesthetic styled washstand or sideboard. Artist's mongram JB at the bottom of the circle. Versos very clean, embossed Minton Hollins etc, printed design registration lozenge which somewhat unusually due to Minton Hollins sharp grip pattern is with a little effort is legible.

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.
