Holmegaard 1991 stocking filler — the glasses are supposed to be different!

...   The decoration is not original to Bang's design, but it will have been adapted to a later annual Christmas series, with one design being released each year.

See http://glassgallery.yobunny.org.uk/displayimage.php?pos=-13618

I forgot to check that the two dram glasses are the same.  :spls:

Please would some kind soul help me out with the actual dates of the Christmas tree and Holly with gold carrot designs.

TIA

The sets came with one each of two different designs. I don't have a list of the designs to hand, but I would guess that they're both from 1991 as the box suggests. They certainly match the decanter for that year.

Nic — Grateful thanks for the good news.   Had I noticed they were different I wouldn't have bought them!  ;D
