Private:
Panel of six octagonal dust-pressed earthenware tiles. The tiles are white glazed and have been decorated in blue glaze over the white glaze using an air-brush and stencil. Between the octagonal tiles there are eight small blue-glazed interlocking tiles: two square ones in the middle of the panel and six triangular ones (ie. halved square ones) around the edge. The white tiles are each decorated with a different stencilled symbol: a portcullis ('the family crest' according to the catalogue card); a crown; a rose; a hound; the monogram CH (both the latter two alluding to the Duke of Westminster's involvement with the Cheshire Hunt); and a letter G (alluding to the family name of Grosvenor). The tiles are mounted in an ebonised frame.
