From a previous catalogue page by Chris,maybe they could be a fruit drink glass which is mentioned in the headline.

That's the catalogue for the modernish 60's pattern it does not have an air twist stem just slice cuts, if you google it you will see. If you look at the top of the page I have shown you it tells you what they are.

Chris I think the only series made with Air twist stems was Ariel.  Here are the pages from my catalog.

There are at least 10 air twist patterns I know of Ross by Stuart plus all the unknown ones, some using the same blank shape as the one you have shown, my favourite is Alexandra clear it's Stunning and must of been one of the most expensive as it hardly ever turns up I have a set of goblets in that pattern.

I have only seen Ariel once in 35 years here in Australia.  So its no wonder I thought it the only one.

though obviously not impossible, I'd suggest that would be exceptional  -  I used to collect a lot of this stuff late 1920s onward, and never once found uranium in Stuart drinking glasses, bowls or whatever shape  -  plenty of items in green glass, but never got a reaction with the u.v. torch.
I'd be really keen to see anything from Stuart, from that period, in uranium.        It occurred to me often to wonder why Stuart didn't seem to do uranium green, when so many contemporaries did.
