These are sometimes confused with Erik Hoglund designs but they are smaller and are not in his style, however they are very likely made by Plus in Norway: http://www.glassmessages.com/index.php/topic,32479.msg177553.html#msg177553

These look very similar, but they don't give a makers name....I wonder if each of the designs had some specific meaning in Norwegian history / culture??
