Sorry - more questions!

I've just realised that the sugar and creamer are slightly different colours (one is more limey), and also slightly different handles.  Any ideas?

Probably different times, different moulds. The limey one might be uranium glass

Short answer to pressed glass value guides - not not really. Values guides for glass tend to be American. The only way is to spend a lot of time on ebay looking at what sells and what doesn't and looking at other online shops

Hi Marcus and Bernard,
Does that mean that Bagley was plagiarising the patterns? If so, then is it possible to tell the difference? Could not Chloe's or the museum piece still have been made by Bagley?
Thanks
Cathy.

Hardly plagiarising, they had been given carte blanche by the legislation to rip off anything they liked from any company, in any territory occupied by the Nazi war machine. This is discussed further elsewhere and soon be available, so forgive me if I cannot really give a fuller response here.
Regards,
Marcus
