Very tiny chip right edge, very tiny shallow
chip left edge, mark top edge a manufatcuring flaw,
very slight rubbing to high points. • Style: Arts & crafts A fabulous rile with an embossed design of
putti apparently debating the geopgraphy of
planet earth, this tile seen just once before by
me, perhaps one from a series representing arts
and sciences (see
similar tile representing music and
dancing). Nice bas relief with superb
detail, super colours, excellent persian blue
with dark tan border/corners, in the manner of
similar tiles by Burmantoft. and of similar
perhaps even better quality. Verso very clean, unmarked, rather as
Burmantofts dust pressed tiles would be without
their patent lock back..
