Hello and welcome to the board. To identify your pattern may I suggest that initially you compare it against the known patterns on replacements.com... link > https://www.replacements.com/crystal-edinburgh-crystal/b/002-800390 (https://www.replacements.com/crystal-edinburgh-crystal/b/002-800390)

Have a look at the Glenshee pattern to see if it matches yours.
Introduced in 1968.
Good luck,
Tim

Thank you, yes the pattern is the same!  However the base & stem on mine are plain (see photo)

That information came from a small book called, The story of Edinburgh crystal by H.W. Woodward.
Surprising that Edinburgh crystal came up with nothing.
