About the Item

An antique French medieval style encaustic tile by Chamberlain and Co of Worcester. This 6-inch glazed tile is a striking decorative interior piece or a welcome addition to an encaustic collector. By the mid 19th century, new churches were under construction and many old churches in need of restoration. Dating to circa 1845, this is one such example of a reclaimed floor tile Chamberlain produced, creating beautiful medieval style encaustics like this one for churches across Britain. This tile is stamped ‘Maw & Co’ to the reverse. Chamberlain Tiles of Worcester Walter Chamberlain had been manufacturing works of porcelain from 1788. But it wasn’t until 1840 that the company traded as ‘Chamberlain & Co.’ following the merge of the two rival Worcester firms Chamberlain and Flight, Barr & Barr. Following Walter Chamberlain’s retirement in 1851, the works were run by Kerr & Binns. In 1862, the firm became known as the Worcester Royal Porcelain Company.
