Four have an edge trimmed for the original fitting, two have chipped corners, all these will be hidden in typical cast iron fireplaces. There are a few tiny surface chips on most of the tiles and other very light marks but they will look just fine when fitted. All are very clean and have excellent glaze brilliance which is caught well by the high relief moulding.

 
A bold aesthetic majolica tile, victoriana with that touch of gothic, in a pleasing jade green. Majolica tiles from Wedgwood are very thin on the ground.

Versos have grains of mortar residue, embossed Portland vase mark and pattern number.
