John Moyr Smith for Mintons Set of Eight Shakespearean 6″ Black Tiles
SOLD
John Moyr Smith for Mintons. A set of eight printed earthenware tiles in black and white variants, each illustrating a scene from Shakespeare’s plays within a circular frame surrounded by stylised lettering and decorative borders. Designed by John Moyr Smith and produced by Mintons at their Stoke-on-Trent works, the tiles exemplify the firm’s mastery of transfer printing on earthenware. These designs merge narrative illustration with decorative purpose, reflecting the influence of literature, the Aesthetic Movement, and the ideals of the Arts and Crafts tradition in late Victorian design.
