Produced in Stoke-on-Trent between 1935 and 1939 — a narrow, historically significant window marked by the “Registration Applied For” stamp — this handled basket represents the factory at the height of its art pottery ambition. The primrose yellow basket-weave ground, the twisted green vine handle, the hand-painted anemones, forget-me-nots, and orange and yellow blossoms: it is a piece that brings genuine joy to a shelf, a table, or a collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe “Registered Australian Design” stamp is a detail worth pausing on. Despite being 100% made in England, Carlton Ware stamped these pieces specifically to protect their lucrative export trade in Australia, where their floral earthenware was wildly popular. This piece was made for us — and it has found its way home. A considered addition to any collection of English art pottery or vintage decorative homewares.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt 27.5 cm long with its green vine handle completely intact and colours remaining exceptionally vibrant, this is one of the larger examples of the shape 1922 basket — and it shows beautifully.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDetails\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaker:\u003c\/strong\u003e Carlton Ware (Wiltshaw \u0026amp; Robinson Ltd.), Stoke-on-Trent, England\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePattern:\u003c\/strong\u003e Springtime (Basket Weave and Flowers)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRange:\u003c\/strong\u003e Australian Design\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMould:\u003c\/strong\u003e Shape 1922\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEra:\u003c\/strong\u003e Circa 1935–1939\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 27.5 cm long, 20 cm wide, 7 cm tall\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 489 g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hand-painted relief-moulded earthenware\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of Origin:\u003c\/strong\u003e England\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCondition\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVery good vinatgecondition.
