Hi Can anyone help ID this one please? It is 180mm tall and thin walled.

Looks like one of the 1950s/1960s era drinking glasses, found in sets of 6, often each colour being different.  (pilsner glasses I think they are called?) Height translated by Google calculator (for metrically challenged people like me!) to a shade over 7 inches tall.

The crusty part is called crinkles (as in Mathey Crinkles - search the board for more info on those) but sets are made with all sorts of different decorative patterns on them by a host of glassmakers, so pinning them down to one maker isn't always possible.

OK Thanks Anne

It is 'probably' a Pirelli "Palace 14oz" glass, included in their 1959 catalogue with different decoration. However they did use this type of decoration too. No idea who actually made the glass itself but they sourced from both France and the UK.

The form is spot on. Thanks for info
