Here is one of ten tiles from Minton, Hollins & Co circa 1870. They are from the rare Nursery Rhymes series designed by Moyr Smith, and were originally part of a fireplace surround. This 6" tile depicts one of my favorite nursery rhymes,Little Miss Muffet. There is wonderful Victorian detail which I have tried to show in many photos. Look for Moyr Smith's initials. I think the man is more frightening than the spider! Who is he? Condition is very good, and appearance is excellent. If you collect children's items or literary items, these are the tiles for you! The print is a dark, chocolate brown against a cream background.
