I have these glasses still in their box,i know they are Italy made but just wondered if anyone knows the manufacturer and date of making..they are 11cm high and quite narrow with a heavy base the box says"confezione michela" is the the manufacturer or am i being dense,of which I'm well practised !!!nice colours and quite heavy..lynn

My guess is Bormioli from Parma in the sixties, based on the gilt decor and the box. Michele would probably be the model name - there is no manufacture of that name on record.
