Any ideas on what these might be would be much appreciated. All uranium glass - but photographed in daylight.

The first - a heavy four compartment dish. Stepped ray pattern on handles. Glows like a beacon and wonderfully silky smooth to the touch. I've checked Pamela's museum, and other links, including Jobling, without success.

The second - a jug with an unusual geometric shape base. This has been listed previously, but I was hoping it would be seen by others.

The third is shown above. A very delicate thin beaker 4" high with internal ribbing. I have two of these.

Many thanks

I think your divided dish is Bagley, I have a two compartment version with the same handles that I've always thought was Bagley as it's the same as the other Bagley frosted green uranium. I also had a feeling I got a postive id, but I can't remember where - not here anyway.

Pamela has your jug in pink I think, but it's not identified. I have a similar uranium jug with an out-curving arched base. This sort of style is quite desirable on you know where

Thank you Christine

I didn't even consider Bagley for the green dish :roll: I snapped it up for Â£2 yesterday at a fleamarket.

I will check Pamela's site again for the jug - I must have missed the pink look-alike.

With regard to its desirability on "you know where..." I did see a very similar jug recently go for Â£37 ... YIKES

but it didn't have an attribution and I can't remember if it was uranium glass or just plain.

I always wonder how safe it is using uranium glass for foodstuff - but it does look great :?

Anne, I haven't got a similar jug - perhaps Christine remembered this vase?

only information on this I can give is: bought in Scotland

both your bowl and jug look English to me also.

The mouthblown glass will be very difficult to identify I am afraid :?

Thank you Pamela

. I just love the arched foot on your vase and my jug

. Am I right in my guess that this type of design is 1930s or even earlier?

My feeling is that the hand blown beaker is around that date also.

Oops, I have the green uranium jug to match Pamela's pink vase! :oops: I would say 1930s too. And I use a Walther centrepiece bowl for my fruit!

Anne,

I've checked the Bagley Glass book and can't see anything similar to either the Jug or compartment dish.

Christine, that's nice please SHOW your Walther fruit bowl

The jug below has the same pattern as Pamela's and the same style handle as Anne's jug. I've no idea who made it though.

This Picture of the jug was taken at my charity shop and the item is not owned by me.

Yep Tiger's found my jug in blue!

Here's a couple of pictures of my divided dish, one with with a Bagley Pontefract mini vase, showing why I think it's Bagley. Could the dishes be part of the Grantham or Wyndham suites?
