Friday's Finds : Bagley Glassware

Bagley Glass, founded in 1871 in Knottingley, Yorkshire, was one of Britain’s most successful pressed glass manufacturers, producing elegant Art Deco designs until its closure in 1975. 

Among its most striking creations was the Rutland vanity set, a 1930s dressing table ensemble crafted from rich amber-coloured glass. 


This set consisted of two candlesticks...


A trinket dish...


Two small cream pots, and a larger loose-powder pot...


Each piece was designed to capture the era’s fascination with geometric elegance and warm, honeyed hues.

When placed on its matching amber tray, the pieces shimmered in the light, embodying the glamour and refinement of early 20th-century vanity décor. 


Today, collectors cherish Bagley’s glassware for its historical significance and enduring beauty.
