About the Item

Twelve 4-inch antique encaustic tiles by Minton & Co, beautifully glazed with floral embellishments on a green, black and red backdrop. Dating back to circa 1870, these reclaimed tiles have stood the test of time, with age related wear that only adds to their unique character. Supplied loose, these Minton tiles can be arranged in any formation to suit your interior vision, usable as a decorative floor panel, wall feature or vintage backsplash. Minton & Co. To this day, Minton & Co. are considered one of the major pottery and porcelain manufacturers of British history. Established in 1793, the company was founded by Thomas Minton (1765 – 1836) in Stoke-on-Trent. Until 1845, the pottery manufacturers traded under various styles before adopting the ‘Minton’ name. When Thomas Minton died, the business passed to his son, Herbert (1793 – 1858) who expanded business by entering into partnership with Michael Hollins. The ‘Minton & Co.’ name was dedicated to encaustic and inlaid tiles while the ‘Minton, Hollins & Co.’ partnership was for printed, painted or majolica wall tiles. Minton exhibited at trade exhibitions across the globe, establishing a firm reputation for excellence in pottery and earthenware. Dimensions for each tile. Weight for the set.
