One tiny and one minute edge chip, a little
light staining near the bottom edge and other very
minor marks otherwise very clean and brilliantly
glazed. Style/technique: Floral majolica A nicely moulded majolica tile, embossed and
indented the design having good proportion on
the tile. Glazed in three colours with blended
glazes perhaps a response to Marsden's patent
'Rainbow Glaze' technique an example of which
can be seen
here. Verso perfectly clean, the usual 'P's in
opposing corners. 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.
