BOTANIC GARDEN SHELL DISH - SPEEDWELL
Retired Shape - Original Coffee Cup Flower - Mint!

I am pleased to offer a Botanic Garden shell dish featuring a Speedwell or Veronica Chamaedrys flower. The Speedwell coffee cup flower is still in production, but the shell bowl shape has not been produced for at least several years and is no longer available.

This nice dish is in mint condition!

Portmeirion Botanic Garden Speedwell Shell Dish

The Speedwell flower is an original 1972 coffee cup motif and remains in production today. It was based on an illustration by William Clarke in Mrs. Hey's botany book,Moral of Flowers.
