Has anyone come across glasses like these? They were made in France and hold about 250ml. I find them quite beautiful. I have quite a lot of them!

I must be missing something - they just look like normal glasses you'd find in a local pub - made in the millons - i may be wrong?
can you shed any light on the maker? as it would be make things easier

Ordinary
They are nothing like pub glasses. They are much smaller for a start, they are more like Coca Cola glasses (as seen on pre WWII Coke adds). I'm wondering if they copied cola glasses. Sorry if this doesn't fit in the Northern European glass category. I'm just curious if anyone else has come across these 'ordinary' glasses which I used to pick up at charity shops but rarely find anymore.

They are popular give-away at Finnish McDonald's "fast"-food restaurants.
Similar "Ask For More" Pepsi glasses, that I got from K-Supermarket were very poor quality. One of them broke after just one wash.
