Vintage Amber Clear Glass by Bagley and Co. Ltd Art Deco 'Fish plate' design No 3123 c1930s
An excellent example of Amber glass by Bagley featuring fish surrounded by water lilies and lily pads.
A watershed in the company’s history came with the introduction of colored glass under the name Crystaltynt by the engineer Branscombe in the early 1930s. He experimented with opal and cloud glass, but the main tints were blue, green, pink and amber in both clear and matte finishes. As with designs and mold departments, the batch department adopted an ad-hoc approach to glass manufacture. When expensive and dangerous arsenic was being used in the production of pink glass, it was accidentally found that temporarily immersing a large potato in the batch produced a similar effect! Bagley’s Crystaltynt line was an immediate success, and received the Royal seal of approval when Queen Mary purchased some pieces at the 1934 British Industries Fair.
Size: 23cm wide x 3.5 cm tall
Excellent condition just a little to the inside rim please photos
