About the Item

A 19th century Liverpool Delft blue and white 6-inch tile of a fox and a bird in a garden scene. This scene is intricately illustrated with stylised details of the fox as it carries the bird in mouth and the garden setting they are depicted in 18th and 19th century delftware tiles. Provenance: Mobbs Collection Delft Tiles Delft dates back as far as the early 1500s. The Dutch city of Delft, after which the pottery is named, was the major centre of its production. Tiles and pottery made from Delft are applied with a tin and magnesium glaze that gives them their distinctive purple-blue colour. Their well-known blue and white tiles appeared around 1620 and became world famous, the tiles often painted with scenes from daily life and used to decorate kitchens, chimneypieces, staircases and more.
