despite being keen on drinking glasses, and frequently their contents, regret I can't offer anything useful about these.         But.......    think from memory there may have been some input from Frank Andrews in the past commenting on the decoration of pieces such as these and/or the stemmed saucers with Babycham decoration.           Might have been associated with Scotland (Vasart) or Nazeing  -  perhaps someone else has better information (or memory).
Just possible that, via the decoration aspect, Frank might be able to date the glasses :)          Of course, I could be wrong with this information.
