Moulded relief tile featuring a bird perched on orange blossom branches design. The tile has a red coloured glaze ground with further coloured glazes over the raised areas of the design; brown for the bird and branches, cream for the blossom and green for the leaves. The reverse of the tile features a raised inscription, 'MINTON, HOLLINS & Co. STOKE ON TRENT' and impressions left by the moulding process. This style of tile was used as a border on the walls of an early Sainsbury's showpiece branch at Brondesbury and is part of a two tile pattern.
