Here is a very nice Low Art Tile Works "Plastic Sketch" ceramic plaque by Arthur Osborne titled "When Age Steals On" depicting a bearded character in profile. From a series of forty seven modeled and hand pressed tiles made in the Chelsea section of Boston in the 1880's. The glossy aubergine or eggplant purple glaze pools in the recess' highlighting the design. It measures 11 1/4 inches high by 7 1/2 inches high (framed, 16" x 12"). In excellent condition, there are no chips, cracks, firing flaws, or repairs. Signed AO on the face and unmarked on the back. A rare and beautiful tile plaque from the famous Art Tile Works in Chelsea, Massachusetts.
