Vintage Carlton Ware Foxglove Leaf Dish – Small Green Floral Plate

A beautifully detailed vintage Carlton Ware leaf dish in the classic Foxglove design, finished in a soft green glaze with raised leaf veining and delicate hand-painted flowers.

The natural leaf form paired with the trailing foxglove motif gives this piece a gentle, botanical feel — decorative, but still wonderfully practical.

The Story Behind the Piece

Carlton Ware, produced in Stoke-on-Trent, is known for its richly glazed ceramics and nature-inspired designs.

The Foxglove pattern reflects the mid-century love of garden motifs — soft greens, organic shapes, and detailed floral decoration designed to bring a sense of the outdoors inside.
