Glass Trinket Sets / Re: Uranium Glass Ring Holder
« Last post by Jayne on Yesterday at 11:35:25 PM »
As Eugenie says, the ring holder appears to be from Mystery Set #145
 
https://www.glasstrinketsets.com/Gallery/thumbnails.php?album=150

but I also notice this ring holder with the 4 little feet appears often with Mystery Set #63

https://www.glasstrinketsets.com/Gallery/thumbnails.php?album=66

I suppose this may indicate Mystery #145 and #63 are the same manufacturer presumably Czech.

Mystery Set #063 now identified as Czech Stolzle from the 1930's Catalogue, the Trinket Pot is on Page 1 Pattern 18728. The Mystery Set #145 Tray appears too Pattern 18411 Page 6.

I'll add a photo with a pink version of the wavy rim type of ring holder/stand into the mix. :D

All of it looks really beautifully made: The handle, the cut decoration on the body, the merese and the star cut foot.  It looks to be very good quality.  Is it heavy as a matter of interest?
I've never really been sure about the star cut bases and whether they can indicate a time frame - however 10 years ago or so Paul made some comments on this thread about 16 point star indicating 1830 and discussed how the star was cut.  Interesting but as I say, I'm not sure how indicative it is of age as I don't know anything about this area and I don't know if info has changed in the meantime since then.

I've found what appears to be the trinket pot for the set, shown in the Czech Stolzle 1930's Pressed Glass Catalogue.

Page 5 Trinket Pot Pattern 18779

Page 5 Biscuit Barrel? Pattern 18889

Both appear again on Page 20 with a suite of other items in the same design pattern.

Don't think it is very practical, tall, smallish foot, filled up it would be top heavy.

Yes they are from Virgin Wines, one of their "specials". I had a set of 6 that I bought at a boot sale for a couple of quid and sold for an outrageous amount. I did some research at the time, but I'm afraid I can't remeber who made them, it was a reputable maker though.
