Anne:
I've seen boxed sets of these which are labelled as Clayton Meyers.

While it might be possible to id the glass blanks maker, the decorators will not neccesarily be a glassworks.

As I found with Babycham glasses, the distributors and designers were Showerings and over the years they had many suppliers of blanks and many decorating companies involved. Identification may well end up stopping at the distributor for much transfer printed glass.

David E:
Article on Showerings company.

I'd imagine Sherdley, Dema and Ravenhead were likely candidates for the blanks, however this presupposes they didn't import them.

Johnson Matthey, Ben Capper or K R Baileys are possible UK transfer suppliers.

Frank:
Pirelli certainly imported from France as well as using UK sources.

David E:
Without works records it might be a devil to identify all sources of glassware, although sometimes there are little subtle hints.
