Another Trinket Set for ID, the candlesticks appear to match Anne's Mystery set 52 here,
http://www.glasstrinketsets.com/cms15/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=208:mystery-set-52&catid=28:mysteries&Itemid=52
Mod: New link https://www.glasstrinketsets.com/cms3/english/ravenhead/p286-72-p332-p334
I have seen these pieces together many times, so I am pretty sure they are a match. Any ideas anyone?
-
I have candlesticks and pots but no idea of who made them as yet, still searching. :)
-
Here are some photos of a tray, candlesticks and lidded pot from 2 different sources (from which I assume that they are probably a matching set or part of a set).
To me, the candlesticks look similar to those shown on the GTS site as Mystery #052.
See: http://www.glasstrinketsets.com/Gallery/thumbnails.php?album=55
What do members think?
If that is correct, then I wonder if Anne could add copies to the Mystery #052 album?
If not, then I will add them as a new ‘Mystery’ album.

I'd say that was a match to Mystery #052 as well, Fred. I'll add the pics or you can do if you like. You should have permissions to do so? And thank you, that looks like those three bits belong together - now to pin them to a maker! :)
-
Thank you, Anne.
I have added them to the Mystery #052 album on the GTS site.
Fred.
-
Excellent, thanks Fred. :)

I came across an advert this evening for this trinket set, made by Ravenhead. (I'm hoping the link works.)

I have a couple of these powder bowls if you would like more photos of them Anne.

Hi Lindsey, Wow! That's a great find, thank you. I had no idea that Ravenhead had ever made trinket sets! I wonder if they made others, they may be the source of some more of our mysteries. And yes please to any photos. I'll go add a new page to the GTS website. :)
-
I photographed them against white and black backgrounds, because different details seem to stand out, plus one of the base.
In addition to the 4" dimension given in the advert (which is the widest point of the bowl), the base measures 2.75" diameter and the powder bowl stands approximately 3.75" tall (with lid on).
BTW, love the previous and next buttons on your site, makes it so much easier to navigate!
-
Lindsey, thank you for such super clear photos, much appreciated, and the dimension details.
I am glad you like the navigation buttons, I keep trying to make things more user-friendly as and when I have time. :)
-
So, I picked up a powder bowl today, possibly a sugar bowl, which I initially thought was an additional part to this set, but a larger version.
Measurements : 4.25" diameter, 4.75" tall, 2" across base
-
The top is very similar, just with additional detailing. I've photographed it next to the bowl from the pattern book.

That's an amazing find LinzH, brilliant!!! Ravenhead who'd have thought it?!
(By the way, link in post 1 now incorrect Anne)
-
Fixed, thanks Jayne. :)

I also have the pots in both sizes, could the taller one be a Sherdley Powder Bowl?

I believe my opening post has the wrong bowl (taller Sherdley) in the photo, although it may have the correct lid. (I have 6 of these bowls, 4 tall, 2 short, with 3 of each lid. I have a vague recollection of picking up one lid and one unlidded bowl separately).
The top photo in Fred's reply no#2 is the same wrong photo and the following 3 in the light box are not mine although credited to me on GTS, but appear to have the correct shorter bowl.
I've added a collage in the Sherdley for Woolworths Powder Bowls thread, it's of what I believe to be both pots to try and help achieve some clarity, I'll add it here too.
