bottom right corner is a print miss. Style: Arts & crafts pictorial An excellent scene of a monk seated on a
bench in a colonnade with a japanesque landscape
behind all in a circular cartouche surrounded by
marble-like texture patterns. Entitled 'Ye
Winter Cauld Drear, one of a set of the four
seasons, most excellent designs, I have yet to
complete my set, this has been in my collection
for years but I have two so now this one for the
pleasure of another. Verso a little grubby, unmarked. Most of
Steele & Wood's tiles are unmarked and
usually attributed to Wedgwood, Minton and
recently I have even seen Cleveland due to
people assuming similar equals the same and
desiring of adding a name with brand value.
Steele & Wood should have brand value for
they did many excellent tiles.
