are these made in China?
Hard to find where these are made. Where are they made? And does it matter? Not that there's anything wrong with China. Iphones are made in China…
Royal Dulton made in US or Aus? They used to made in UK but now they made in China or elsewhere

Yup, made in china / thailand. They expect you to pay a premium price for a premium product but moved production offshore a while back. Whether the product remains premium is debatable.
They go out of the way to hide the country of manufacture and borderline use deception to infer the product is still made in england / denmark / germany etc
For example, words like "designed in <country>" will be shown but the "made in china" requirement will be hidden in fine print or under labels etc.
I've got a set of these. Very nice glasses. However, they are on the small size.. so if you want to use a sphere ice cube for your drink, it won't fit.
Bought for $35 from essendon dfo vic. The have further 30% off storewide. Same in uni hill bundoora vic. Should be in other places too.
Is this lead glass or not?
It's crystalline - so lead free crystal.
each to their own of course,
but do own research and buy something made in AU, EU, US instead. especially when paying up for a 'premium' name
