Topic: Help identify butterfly pattern trinket set - ID = Bagley 3003

[Jayne]

Anne, for the record, I've seen it now in Blue, Frosted Blue, Green, Uranium, Pink, Amber and Clear.

Here are the lidded trinket pots (in amber glass) in two sizes from the Bagley 3003 butterfly set.

The smaller pots measure 4 inches x 3 inches x 2 inches high.

The large pot measures 6 inches x 4.5 inches x 2.25 inches high.

Oh yum! Thanks Fred... I keep searching for these on my travels but have never seen any for sale locally other than the 2 candleholders I picked up a while back. I suspect it was Bagley's answer to the popular Sowerby butterfly set!

[agincourt17]

Is there any evidence for the existence of a matching ringholder? I'll certainly post images if I ever see one.

By the way, the owner of the lidded pots was delighted that I was able to identify them for her, and more than pleased to be directed to the relevant section on www.glasstrinketsets.com to see more details about the set (especially the pic of the candlestick).

Not so that I know of, Fred. I've seen the big and little trays, pots and candlesholders online, but never a ringholder. In fact, I can't think of a ringholder with any Bagley set...

[Jayne]

No ring holder, I've seen a 7 piece set with a pin dish.

I think pin dishes were the norm with most (not all) Bagley sets.
