One tiny three minute rim chips, tiny
chip/scrape on bottom right leaf, other very minor
surface marks, perfectly clean and brilliantly
glazed Style: Gothic-moderne Almost by accident I started to collect this
genre, lead glazed gothic designs, I found I had
a handful in my collection of art nouveau
majolica tiles and really liked them so looked
out for more. But it is a rare genre and they
are hard to come by, one can't call it
neo-gothic for that name is already taken, so I
suggest gothic-moderne. Most always a fusion of
gothic with the styles prevalent when lead glaze
technology advanced to brilliance and a wide
range of colours, art nouveau and victoriana
especially the edwardian progression of
victoriana. Verso near perfectly clean just a little
smoke stain, embossed M. T. W. Co. and
inidstinct painted pattern number.
