Carlton Ware was founded in 1890 in Stoke-on-Trent, England, by James Frederick Wiltshaw and the brothers William Herbert and James Alcock Robinson, trading as Wiltshaw & Robinson. In the 1920s and 30s the factory became known for its hand-painted Art Deco ceramics with bold colours and Oriental-inspired patterns. Production ceased in 1992.
