Set of 9 Antique Encaustic Tiles by Maw & Co

About the Item

Nine 6-inch antique Maw & Co encaustic tiles displaying red and buff patterns surrounding roundels with blue glaze around a central floret. This set of nine reclaimed tiles could be used in a number of ways including a decorative panel or a vibrant splashback for a vintage kitchen. We are selling various sets of these tiles in panels of nine as pictured which could be used together as floor tiles. Supplied loose, these 6-inch tiles are antique and as such have a characterful, timeworn look with scuffs and crazing here and there that only enhances the beauty of these striking patterned tiles. Maw & Co. Antique Tiles Maw & Co. was founded in 1850 by George Maw and his brother Arthur. Over the next 30 years, the business would grow into one of the most influential English floor tile manufacturers in the industry, Maw & Co. tiles decorating properties and establishments across the globe. Initially based in Worcester, the business relocated to the Benthall Works in Broseley, Shropshire in 1852. Here they made their highly sought after encaustic tiles while experimenting with majolica glazes, transfer print, hand painting and relief tiles. In 1883, the business expanded, relocating again to a new premises in Jackfield. At the end of the 19th century, Maw & Co. was one of the largest tile factories in the world, trading for a further 70 years before closing in 1970. Tiles each: 15 x 15 x 2 cm (6 inches)
