Section of wall tile consisting of rectangular machine pressed glazed relief tile with brown floral borders. The middle contains yellow and white chrysanthemums and tan leaves against a blue background. Also portion of 2 glazed light blue and brown border tiles and small piece of plain cream glazed tile. All held together by original cement work. Typical example of the house style used to decorate many of Sainsbury's new branches from the 1890s until after World War Two. It would have formed part of the border surrounding the central motifs of stylised crown imperials on the walls of a Sainsbury's branch.
