Junior pressed glass trinket set
agincourt17:
Yes, Christine, the units are correct.
I initially used the term 'toy' rather than small in the same sense that half-size children's china teasets would normally be regarded as 'toy' or play sets .
The 'miniature' pieces produced to furnish dolls houses are usually much smaller (often 1: 12 or 1:24 scale) but they are usually not produced for use as toys or play items but for use by dedicated minaiturists or collectors.
Lustrousstone:
I wasn't thinking doll's house but they still seem quite large for toy. You could be right though
Anne:
Thanks Fred, much appreciated. I'm wondering if these were intended as junior miss type pieces rather than full adult ones? The sort of things an older girl/young teen may have been given as she starts to grow up? There are similarly small sized ones in Sowerby's range (Maid and Junior coming to mind.)
Lustrousstone:
That makes more sense than toy as such
agincourt17:
I agree.
Would you like to change the topic heading to something more appropriate, Anne?
