  • ObjectDecorative Tiles
  • Period1900 - 1920
  • StyleEdwardian
  • MaterialEarthenware, Glaze
  • ColourTeal Blue and Cream
  • MotifsRelief floral border, Transfer printed grid, Inscribed base text

These Edwardian decorative tiles are formed from earthenware with a glossy teal blue glaze and cream ground. Each rectangular piece presents a relief-moulded border depicting the English rose, Scots thistle, and Irish shamrock, enclosing a transfer-printed grid detailing the calendar months for 1901 and 1904. The base of each tile includes inscribed text from Minton, Hollins and Co, noting royal appointments and showrooms in Stoke-on-Trent, London, and Birmingham. Surface condition shows minor nibbles and chips to the corners from past use. Each ceramic plaque measures 15 cm by 10 cm. Position these historical pieces upon an office desk as paperweights or decorative writing accessories, where their botanical relief work and archival transfer printing provide a tangible link to early twentieth-century ceramic manufacturing. The rich teal colour and cream panels complement traditional interior schemes, while the dual dates supply a conversation piece for studies, libraries, or collector displays. Placed flat on a writing surface or supported on small display stands, the tiles offer an authentic Edwardian aesthetic rooted in British ceramic history.

FAQs

Minton Hollins ceramic calendar tiles were promotional advertising items produced by the Staffordshire pottery company during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries as gifts for clients.

These items were made from earthenware clay, moulded with decorative relief borders, glazed in distinctive colours such as teal blue, and transfer-printed with calendar grids before firing.

Authentic examples feature defined transfer-printed typography, relief moulding around the perimeter, clear company maker inscriptions along the base, and age-consistent glaze crazing.

These tiles can be styled on an office desk using small display stands, incorporated into a curated bookshelf layout, or mounted as decorative wall plaques.

Clean glazed ceramic tiles using a dry or slightly damp cloth, avoiding abrasive cleaning agents, immersion in water, or exposure to temperature fluctuations.
