Little greeny-grey wine (sherry?) glasses (Holmegaard??)
« on: June 30, 2008, 09:38:37 AM »
These little glasses are very thin and delicate.  They are just over 6 inches tall (15.5cm) and 2 inches across the bowl (5cm). 

Please could someone tell me if they have any idea of a maker?  Thank you.

The colour could be right for HG, but it's not a design I know.

I don't remember putting Holmgaarde in the title!   :huh:  Did someone moderate it?

Moderator: Title was changed to draw Nic to comment. Just trying to help.

Could be swedish (Orrefors?) but I can not pin them to a maker or designer.
