Large Chinese Qing Dynasty Carved & Painted Pottery Floral Tile

This decorative pottery tile was made during the Qing Dynasty (1644 - 1912). It is made from a dense grey pottery. The surface has been carved with an attractive floral design featuring two flower blossoms within a circular border. It has been cold-painted with various coloured pigments. It would once have been part of a series of similar tiles adorning a wall.

It is quite large, measuring around 27 cm (10.5 inches) square. There is some surface wear, loss of pigment and some chips to the bottom right and right side, but there is no sign of restoration or repair.
