About this piece
back to topA striking Victorian era glazed ceramic 8-inch decorative tile attributed to English pottery George Jones (unmarked), ex. Michael Blood collection.
One of two similar we have for sale, this antique tile is designed around a large raised flower with petals in shades of blue and green surrounding a white and yellow centre before a deep brown backdrop, all glazed to provide an eye-catching, lustrous finish.
It is just one of various tiles we are selling that were formerly part of the Michael Blood collection. Michael’s collection was vast and decorated the walls of his magnificent Edwardian home.
George Jones Pottery
English pottery George Jones was established in the early 1860s at the Bridge Works, Stoke-On-Trent. The firm was best known for its majolica wares, characterised by vibrant glossy glazes and naturalistic designs intricately modelled on florals, leaves and fauna.
