Rod Crawshaw identified them in his new 'book' as
Hoskins&Rose 1935 - never heard that name :cry:

Hoskins Rose was not a glass maker.

Hoskins Rose Co., 5 St Andrew St., Holborn Cross, London: Offices and Showrooms for Glassware. They were undoubtedly agents, wholesalers etc. Possibly handled the usual suspects (Czech, German etc).

I must say those candlesticks have a Rindskopf look to them!

I see that Hoskins Rose registered 786703 through to 786706 on that date. They were just acting as agents on behalf of another company (and I really think it was Rindskopf, but I cannot see that exact pattern!)

I love that Deco style. So flamboyant

Pamela and Glen, I too have three of these 3-footed candle holders, but in clear glass. I remember that just one of them had some writing impressed underneath, but can't recall what it was - whether it was text or numbers. I will see if I can dig them out of the garage and have a look. Its a long time since they saw the light of day and I had all but forgotten about them. It's a good excuse to use them anyway, they are really pretty, but the pink ones are far nicer.

Pamela, I saw you had the pink 3-legged candlesticks and meant to comment before but was sidetracked (how unusual for me! :roll: ). Mine have no visible markings on them so I was stumped as to origin. I have the tray and the ring holder also, all in clear glass. The only piece missing is the lidded pot.
Ring holder: (RD no _ 86706 (first digit hard to read) http://yobunny.org.uk/gallery1/displayimage.php?pos=-201
Tray: (no marks visible) http://yobunny.org.uk/gallery1/displayimage.php?pos=-127

I love this set and would be delighted to know who made it. I have another pot with a Hoskins Rose RD no, which has matching candlesticks as well, but again I have no idea of maker for that either. The pot is similar in style to the one with the 786706 number, but the candlesticks are totally different.

I've been taking pics of my sets as they are now so shall add them to the gallery later. Most of the sets are created from individual pieces, so it's fun trying to figure out what goes with what! :lol:
