Apart from the almost inevitable wear to the
gilding it having been fitted in to a fireplace
this is near perfect with just a couple of very
tiny rim chips. •
Style/technique: Slip stencilled
floral A quite rarely found tile with the Doulton
& Slater's Patent lace textured ground and
with Marsden's Patent stencilling. Glazed in a
very thinly applied silk finish glaze creating a
most refined effect. Verso perfectly clean, Doulton etc embossed,
various painted and incised pattern numbers and
decorators marks including initial AT likely the
gilder. 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.
