A very geometric Art Deco pressed transparent blue glass trinket set comprising:
Tray 15½" x 8"
Pair of double-holder candlesticks; 4½" x 4½"H
Large lidded trinket pot; 5"x 3½" x 3½"H
A pair of smaller lidded trinket pots; 4"x 2½ x 2"H
Ringholder; 4"x 3"H
(Permission for the re-use of this image on the GMB granted by lightfootfall).
Fortunately, all the component pieces are quite distinctive, and I don’t think there is any doubt that the pieces in the blue set are properly matched.
I also include of photo of an amber tray in the same pattern for reference.

Pamela attributes the lidded pots to Stölzle, and has a photo of a labelled pink pot on her site at
http://www.pressglas-pavillon.de/deckeldosen/02808.jpgThe foil label reads “Made in Czechoslovakia”.
Pamela also shows a pink version of the candlestick at
http://www.pressglas-pavillon.de/kerzenhalter/01009.jpgwith an “unknown” attribution.
So at least we know that the set comes in transparent blue, pink or amber glass. Does anyone have photos of a set / sets / pieces in other colours, or even frosted / part-frosted versions?
I can’t see any of these trinket pieces in the Stölzle / Hermanova catalogues to which I have access. Has anyone else noticed them in a catalogue , please, and can give definitive references in confirmation?
Fred.
