• Style/technique: Classical print • Made by: Josiah Wedgwood & Son • Pattern number: T279 • Dimensions: 6" x 6" • Date: circa 1885	Classic Wedgwood the central scene looks just like one of their jasperware plaques, a miniature landscape of children at play and picking fruit whilst being watched over by their mothers. Around the plaque the design is full of classical imagery, an urn, griffins and hanging swags surrounded by a persian style border. A lovely shade of blue too, also quite similar to the hue of jasperware, soft without being weak and very appealing. This tile is rare for another reason, it has the marks for Brown, Westhead Moore verso, they have been filed off to a great extent but are still visible. Whilst this is guaranteed a Wedgwood tile it may well be that they bought in the blank and decorated it or even subcontracted manufacture of the finished tiles, certainly there are a few noted anomalies with Wedgwood versos and is an area being researched. This exact design has been seen with marks for Webbs of Worcester, it is though they may have made blanks (or indeed tiles) for both Wedgwood and BWM. Versos perfectly clean, generic rails, part printed pattern number on one tile, remnants of Brown, Westhead Moore etc embossed.

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.
