Happy new year everyone. I just wanted to update you on the glasses. It turns out they are bought in Stockholm and are the glasses used at the first Nobel Prize dinner. Have had no luck finding more though, but now you know.

Thank you so much for all the help!

Thank you so much for all the information!

I am not at my mothers right now, so I can't check or measure the glasses, but I'm 99% sure they are crystal. Not certain about height though, but I think they are the short type of sherbet glasses.

I have checked ebay and found nothing yet, but as you say, there is quite a bit to go through, especially when you don't have a maker OR a pattern.

Also not at all sure about London, but I don't think they are bought in Italy. I wish I could ask my mother, but I want to get them for her as a present, and that would spoil the surprise.

So I'll keep looking and I'll try sending replacemants an email with pictures

Hi, my mother owns these glasses and I am curious to find out more about them. I would love to get a hold of a couple more of these. I can't seem to find any marks on the glasses and all I know is that they are bought in Europe, possibly London. Not even sure they are valuable or anything, but I find them to be very pretty. Anyone out there that can help me?

Thank you so much in advance
