Crystopal Filey Bagley
« on: February 19, 2013, 04:02:31 PM »
I just bought this gorgeous Crystopal Filey trinket set and cigarette box. I am sure I read somewhere they were sold together as a set with an ashtray? Unfortunately the lid of the cigarette box is missing I don't surpose anyone has a spare one they would sell me or an ashtray  ???? ;)

The original Crystopal trinket set comprised the candlesticks, powder bowl and tray, to which the ashtray and cigarette box was added later, from 1946. Uranium, so it should also glow under UV.

I do have an ashtray, but from memory it does have a small chip. When I find it, then I am open to offers.

Worth noting that the design (by Robert Goodden) for these dates back to pre-1939, so the Bagley one appears to draw some inspiration from it. Also see this thread for more details on this ashtray.

Thanks that made very interesting reading...looks like my £3 at the flea market was well spent. Mine has a tiny chip on one wing but I love the colour it leapt out at me as soon as I entered the Market Hall. Glad to know what the Parker was too. Thanks every one !!! ;D

You'd be very lucky to find one that wasn't chipped
