One of the more 'Mackintosh' style
designs on tile not solely the flowerheads but
also the formality and symmetry of the stems.
Indeed one may say rather art deco with the
squarish flowerheads and regular curves of the
stems. Not often found almost a rarity, these
rather easy-going colours don't make the best of
the style for collectors that bolder colours
would still a great design to have and good
interior design colours.
