Hand Painted Antique English Minton Tile Decorative Wall Panel

About the Item

A charming hand painted antique English Minton tile decorative wall panel depicting a country milkmaid, circa 1900. Stamped Minton and printed with the initials H & S by repute, it once resided inside the Angel Islington Public House, London, UK. Dating from the Victorian era, this large decorative wall panel is evocative of the period, depicting a classic late Victorian scene of a quaint English country farm hand painted onto white tile. It details a milkmaid with apron and wooden pail alongside a cow and hare. At over 120 years old, the hand painted details are beautifully preserved. Minor wear reveals the white tile beneath in places, adding to its aged appeal. It will surface mount onto a wall, making for a beautiful antique English painting for a café, ice cream parlour or country kitchen.

  • Minton Encaustic Neo-Medieval Old English Tile
    By Minton
    Located in Wormelow, Herefordshire
    An antique neo-medieval old English encaustic tile depicting a King, possibly Henry III, attributed to Minton & Co. This tile was commissioned in 1840-42 by L. N. Cottingham for Temple Church, London and possibly removed following WWII bomb damage. It was not until 1850 that Minton and Co. began stamping the reverse of their tiles. Though unstamped, there is a similar tile to this one in the British Museum attributed to some of Minton’s earliest works: “Minton & Co.’s first major commission was for the restoration of the Temple Church in 1840-42… The earliest Minton tiles are two-colour inlaid tiles characterised by random stabmarks (a device which aids drying found on the reverse) together with the yellow glaze covering the inlaid white of buff areas.” As is the nature of encaustic tiles, both the red background and yellow figure form the body of the tile, unlike other tiles where the design is painted onto clay. This may be why it has such excellent definition after more than 180 years, the figure of the King clear and vibrant against the red with minimal surface wear. A brilliant collector’s piece! Provenance: This antique encaustic tile...
