The Crystal Glass Company (AKA Bagley & Co).

When you find frosted uranium glass, one of the first stops on the research journey is Bagley & Co. Some of the finest frosted glass that collectors still greatly appreciate was made by them. They were experimental and didn't hesitate to try all different kinds of chemicals and materials to produce unique glass designs, moulds and finishes. 

Interesting Trivia

Bagley Glass assisted England with war materials during the Second World War. They were mostly overrun with replacing beer glasses. They were broken by the veterans so often, Bagley couldn't keep up with demand. They also assisted with manufacturing battery cases and shells etc. After the War (and the horrific results of the uranium bomb), three tonnes of their uranium stores were confiscated by the government, and thus no more uranium glass was made by the company.

Features and Further details

The 2007 Carters Price Guide lists the same design (platter) without the dividers for between $110-$130 - and notes it as from the Art Nouveau period (1890 - 1914). I haven't been able to find a catalogue excerpt for the company from this period so can't confirm this. Most decorative glassware was made after the 1880s. It could very well be antique rather than vintage.
