This faithful reproduction of the Mintons China Works' 1885 catalog contains hundreds of tile designs. The glory of these tiles is captured in beautiful color illustrations. The catalog opens with its original brief history of Mintons' unique patented enameling technique, known as the "Reynolds's process". This process' origins date back to 1848, when it was first used by Mr. Herbert Minton. Historians and collectors will find the beginning pages of the catalogue valuable for their dimensional and design information. This catalogue will be an important source of inspiration and information for those who appreciate the beauty of Minton tiles. | Mintons Tiles by Chris Blanchett, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
