This is one of those edwardian designs blending the contemporary predominent styles of art nouveau and classical. At times it seems almost pure art nouveau, other times more of the classical influence seem to show through. Strong art nouveau in the flowerhead and buds and the flow of the lines although the leaves are a little more naturalistic. A super, rich shade of blue.

*I have the feeling that this may be by Carter of Poole

The image is full size at 72 dpi (about 430 pixels wide) in maximum quality JPEG format. 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.
