Carlton Ware Buttercup

One of the first embossed Australian Registered designs introduced by Carlton Ware in the mid 1930s. Two colourways were produced, pink (pattern number 3994) and yellow (pattern number 3993); the pink is the rarer and so it sells for a premium. A few 'plain' items with just the yellow ground and the flowers left unpainted were produced during the war years as restrictions began to bite. For a selection of Buttercup see Premier Antiques
