Maker: Minton Pattern:Rustic Figures brown
Tile c1880
There are eight different scenes in the Rustic Figures series, which was introduced about 1846/7 under factory pattern number 57. Early examples are recorded with Prossers Patent embossed on the back, although the series was still in production in 1885 and probably later, so dating individual tiles is difficult. The series is often attributed to William Wise, but this is incorrect and the original artist and engraver have not been identified. This tile features young woman collecting water with another in the background and is printed in brown. Backstamp: Mintons China Works Stoke on Trent Mintons Stoke Upon Trent Walbrook London. Crazed with a little associated discolouration. There is a small unsprung chip to the lower rim and a little minor pitting otherwise excellent. On the back there are some remnants of green adhesive.
Dimensions: 15 cm across / 6 ins across
