the first one looks alot like a set of mugs that spencer gifts sold a couple years back..i don't think it's vintage. pottery barn also sold similiar mugs i think....the orchids i think is the real deal..it seems that orchids made 2 types of mugs...heavier ones to be used by the bar industry and these lightweight ones, to be marketed strictly as gifts or part of gift sets in small shops throughout the sixties and seventies.....these were too fragile to use in the bars, which is why you rarely if ever see a bars name stamped on this mug, but rather on it's heavier counterpart. that's my take on it...anyone else??
