Description
Five original antique late Victorian Minton Hollis ceramic fireplace tiles in dark brown glaze, mounted in a wooden frame for wall mounting, depicting various scenes from the Bible. Made around 1875 probably. The block printed arts and Crafts style pictures show various stories including Rebecca at the well, the Good Samaritan and Moses in the reeds. Condition is pretty good: there's a few little chips at the edges but not much. To be fair, the corners are hidden behind the frame so there may be some small unseen damage but that would be hidden in a fire insert anyway, if that's what they were used for. The frame is a bit scuffed in places but again nothing serious.
