They look a bit like Whitefriars canes, they did make decanters with millefiori.

It looks a tad early for Whitfriars to me and has a broken pontil ?,but I’m no expert !,..I thought the others maybe though ?,but in my haste and excitement I’m now wondering if there’s a sitting white rabbit in the other ones ,directly under the light bulb reflection??, which would hint at Arculus ?..I’ve sent a message and asked for another image.
