Late Victorian Geometric Floral Design Ceramic Fireplace Tile c.1890
For a full product description, see below.
This is a highly attractive example of a ceramic fireplace tile dating to the end of the 19th century.
The design consists of a central stylised rose, surrounded by a lattice. Each corner bears one quarter of a similar rose, in yellow, so that when four tiles are placed together the rose is complete. In the middle of each side is a semicircle, which forms as circle containing a further stylised floral design when two tiles are placed together.
The underneath of the tile is moulded in ridged pattern, presumably for the application of adhesive. There is a printed registered number, which reads ‘Rd. No. 152450’. This dates the piece to between January 1890 and January 1891.
It measures 15.2cm square.
It is in good condition, considering its age. There are a number of small chips to both the top and bottom of the tile, although these do not detract from the piece in any way.
