No idea, but I have a vase in the same colour with the same horizontal optic ribbing, so if we can nail one we might know who made the other too. :thup:

LOL!  You're right.  I actually saw your post a few days ago.  I thought that the stopper seemed rather distinctive enough that someone may recognize it.  Oh well.  Strangely enough, I found a set of glasses about a couple weeks later and completely different shop that almost match the decanter in color and form.  When I purchased the glasses, I thought that they might be Holmegaard's "Canada" glasses.  I don't think that they are though.  Regardless, I like them as a set.

Thanks for your reply, Anne.

Hi,

I don't believe the glasses and decanter were originally meant to be together. The glasses are indeed from Holmegaard's "Canada" range IMHO.
