About the Item

An antique glazed terracotta tile by Campbell Tile Co, Stoke on Trent. Dating to circa 1880, this 8-inch terracotta tile is decorated with heraldic motifs of a bishop’s mitre 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. The tile is impressed with the makers mark to the reverse side. 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. In 1875, he changed the name to Campbell Brick & Tile Co in 1875. This was after tile manufacturers Minton Hollins, previously Minton & Co, had taken out a court order to stop Taylor and Campbell using the Minton name for tile production. 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. This pattern of this tile has certainly stood the test of time.
