About the Item

A late 19th / early 20th century arts and crafts peacock tile in the manner of 19th century English potter and tile designer, William De Morgan (1839-1917). Though this 6-inch tile is unmarked, it can be safely attributed to Carter & Co. Poole Pottery (1900-25) as the same design has been found on marked Carter & Co. tiles. This tube-lined antique tile details a peacock bird, decorated with a brilliant range of varying blue, green and yellow enamel glazes to create bold and vibrant colours. It’s eye-catching design, inspired by similar peacock tiles made by William De Morgan, makes this arts and crafts tile an excellent stand-alone piece, perfect for a collector’s cabinet or decorative interior display. CARTER & CO. Carter Tiles, later Carter & Co, was founded in 1873 by Jesse Carter, a builder’s merchant and ironmonger from Surrey, who bought James Walker’s brick and tile business on the East Quay at Poole. By the 1880s, Carters was competing with other manufacturers on a national level, before expanding in 1895. In the early 20th century, the demand for decorative ceramics grew and Carter & Co. Poole Pottery went on to supply beautiful tiles to breweries, pubs, hospitals, schools, retailers, municipal authorities and many others all around the UK.
