Don't know about the stopper, but these are not Holmegaard.  I think they may be Italian / Empoli, but not too sure.

They do often come with stoppers. I had stated previously on the Board otherwise but was quickly directed to a couple with stoppers, then within days bumped into one with a stopper in the flesh. 'Tis often the way when you are barking up the wrong tree. ;D

Empoli seems as a good a bet as say Poland.

Yep they are quite often mistaken for Holmegaard due to the flat wide rim.
