I got these today. Only 5 in the box, one is missing. Anyone think they are English or know?
Thanks, Pat.

Decoration may be English but I think the glasses are made elsewhere - probably by Bormioli Parma (and if not then by Arques or Ruhrglas) There should be a mould number on the bottom?

Thank you Ivo. You made me look harder with different specs on. No mould number but tiny letters FRANCE.
