Vintage Carlton Ware Wild Rose Leaf Dish – Medium Floral Serving Plate

A beautifully detailed vintage Carlton Ware leaf dish in the classic Wild Rose design, finished in a soft yellow glaze with raised floral decoration.

The open rose blooms and trailing stem give this piece a gentle, natural feel — more relaxed and flowing than some of the more structured Carlton Ware patterns.

The Story Behind the Piece

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

The Wild Rose motif reflects a softer, more naturalistic style — capturing the look of garden roses in bloom, with delicate colour and sculptural detail.
