Private:
Panel of plastic-bodied earthenware tiles with hand-transferred underglaze 'Persian' leaf and flower decoration, two of them large square tiles and fourteen of them smaller border tiles, consisting of two large central tiles, four small square border tiles and eight narrow rectangular border tiles. All the tiles are coated with white slip and decorated with hand-transferred underglaze 'Persian' colours: dark blue, turquoise, green, purple and black. The small corner squares each have a white flower. The other tiles all have a dark blue background. The border tiles have a design of scrolling green foliage, turquoise carnations and purple 'tulips'. The central tiles, not in themselves a complete panel, have a design of white carnations and 'Persian'-style green and white serrated 'saz' leaves. The border tiles, which are of identical design to those of the ship panels 1918.292 and 1918.299, are in fact two too many for the two main tiles and may actually belong to the group of four 'Argyll' tiles (1918.294/4), as suggested by the slides (see below).
