Snake (WDMB010)William de Morgan Tiles: Animals (with background)Whereas De Morgan's flowery images can be said to be reminiscent of William Morris's floral designs, the animal designs are distinctly his own. They are partly drawn from his detailed knowledge of medieval illustrated manuscripts and partly from his vivid imagination. The fantastic imaginary creatures are outlined onto an engobe and decorated using individual brush strokes before being bathed in an alkali overglaze. Priced at £29.95 + VAT each, these tiles are 6" x 6" (152mm x 152mm) x 8mm thick. Ideal for general wall use or as fireplace tiles. |
