Looks Czech but I don't recognise the pattern. The design probably dates from the mid to late 30s.
The small dish at the front in the centre looks to be for rings.

Evening Steven
                 I thought that rings, and around the 30s thanks for the view point, i presume these have a name style to them if so i hope to find out,

The design might be 30s but the set could be 50s/60s. Many of these were made over a long period.

And Bagley it is! It's a #3103 'Duchess' design 7 piece Boudoir set. It could have been made anywhere between 1939 to 1975.

Cathy Pamela Christine & Steven.
                                             Thank you very much for your help in the identification of the set, at the oment i have not decided which glass to make my sole collection, so untill i do its all the glass that takes my eye, by which time i guess i will have loads, i can not believe how much i have collected so far, and i am off again in the morning, will slow down in the next 2-3wks once moved as i will have to sort out the work on the bungalow.

After which then i can unpack and see what glass i will be keeping and see what i will do with the rest open a shop maybe,  ;)
