It looks like it's from Empoli, Italy to me.  :)

Definitely NOT Holmegaard.
Several Swedish companies as well as Italian made this type of glass. The Japanese also had a go but they exported more to the US and Australia than here.
Really any company which made glass lighting from the late 50s -70s period would have also made this type of glass I seem remember Ivo saying.
In more recent years there's also at least one Polish company and I think they did this colour. Could be Makora but I may be wrong. Try a search on Ebay and google.
