Swedish? Glasses For ID help, Please
« on: August 16, 2018, 10:29:54 AM »
This post is on behalf of someone else, who has asked for them to be identified. The photo's are theirs and permission has been granted to post here.
They are believed to be Swedish and purchased at Harrods, or Selfridges
The tumbler is 100mm high and 88mm diameter.
The larger goblet is 142 × 64.
The smallest liqueur glass is 95 × 49
They are hand blown and their are slight variations in height because of this. The foot seems quite distinctive, so I'm hoping that someone will recognise them.

TIA.
Della

If I know, I'll comment. If I think I know, I'll have a go. If I have no idea, I'll just keep quiet and learn from others, so the next time I'll know.

Hello,

I just came across an image of  this set in 'The Beauty of Modern Glass' and if I'm not mistaken, it's called 'The Gilbey Glasses'.

Thanks, Anne Tique!  ;D  :-*
Designed by Stennett-Willson and indeed made in Sweden.

Pure coincidence that I've just seen them,  I could not have told you who made them otherwise.
