Antique Campbell Tile Co Terracotta Tile

About the Item

An antique terracotta glazed tile by Campbell Tile Co, Stoke on Trent. Dating to circa 1880, this 8-inch terracotta tile is decorated with heraldic motifs of a lion opposing a chevron, decorated with roundels, in buff terracotta on a rich background. Mounted on a bespoke steel stand, the detail of this tile can be observed and appreciated up close. The perfect decorative piece for a period property looking to add style and charm, while appreciating British heritage. Campbell Brick & Tile Co Campbell Brick & Tile Co, based in Fenton, Stoke-on-Trent, was founded by Robert Minton Taylor in 1869. The company was later bought out by Colin Minton Campbell in 1875, who continued Taylor's business initially as Minton Brick & Tile Co. After tile manufacturers Minton Hollins, previously Minton & Co, took out a court order to stop Taylor and Campbell using the Minton name for tile production. This led to the company changing its name to Campbell Brick & Tile Co in 1875. The company traded as Campbell Tile Co from 1882 and was absorbed by H & R Johnson-Richards in 1968. Encaustic tiles Encaustic tiles are traditionally created using different colours of ceramic clay with a pattern inlaid into the body of the tile. The coloured clays can expand into the base tile colour, meaning the patterns remain visible even after centuries of wear. The pattern of this tile has certainly stood the test of time.
