Might be worth comparing them to Holmegaard Canada glasses.

Hello all
I think Cat was very near, but I just compared the rims, Holmegaard is sharper. These glasses have a very small thicker part in the rim. And Holmeggard looks a touch slimmer.

So I think it isn‘t Holmegaard, but unfortunately I don‘t have a idea which maker it could be instead.

Ronald Stennett-Wilson designed similar style pieces.....sorry I don't have much time today to do more than suggest some possibilities.

Fairly sure this variation is made by Arcoroc.

On second thoughts more likely Luminarc was the brand.

Found this photo in the depths of my computer, the lack of memorable file name was not the best idea!
