These may have been made by the English Antique Glass Company. Hill Ousten or others to meet the demand for Georgian style glass in the early 2oth century
The colour and form is right for a Georgian glass. However note the differences. The glass is free from any inclusions. there are no fold lines in the bowl. these differences however are not always obvious within images. The pontil scar has a smooth flat circular area around it. the actual snap is smaller and less prominent than an 18th century example. the stem is also moulded.
