Have this nice 4 piece set in pale blue frosted glass with painted flower decoration. I thought possibly Bagley. Any confirmation or alternative suggestions appreciated John
-
Definitely Bagley, but I'm at work so no access to book for name
-
Thanks Christine, I now believe this to be "Filey" pattern. Is the painted decoration a common finish? John
-
Difficult to tell because it wears off, but cold-painted enamelling was on quite a lot of Bagley items post war and before they started applying transfers
-
John, I've seen some of these but not a lot. The Filey pattern, which this is, seems to have been one that various decorative techniques were applied to. I've also seen it with applied leather flowers!

May I add your pics to the GTS website to show this variant too please?

Anne, By all means use the photos in any way you wish, I have added a couple of close ups of individual pieces in case they were of use to you,

That's super, thanks John. Am planning doing a lot of updating at GTS over the Xmas hols when I get some time off. :)

Adding pics for reference of my new green Filey set (gift from Angela Bowey when she was here at the end of June) and my original pink one. :)

Having just added my pics and looked again at John's painted set I have realised his pot is not a Filey pot! It's the Queen's Choice pattern lidded pot, pattern 1122, 5" diameter. The tray and candlesticks are Filey though.
