Can anyone help me with this goblet??

I have two of them each about 8" in height, and each with the same makers mark on the bottom

Image

I hope I did these photos correctly and that they are as viewable as possible.

Image

and here is another view of the same mark without any adjustments to make it more readable, maybe this will help those who might be familiar with it.

It looks as if it says DANMARK on the bottom and then DANSK on top SND?G on the right side and DES on the left. Also there are three letters at the bottom IHO/JHO or THO that first letter is hard to read.
Any information would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Carol Anne

Hi ~ welcome to the forums. Nice modernist piece, can't recall seeing this goblet before - it says, "DANSK DESIGNS DANMARK IHQ", yours is one of the earlier 'four ducks' marks, the initials are for 'Jens Harald Quistgaard', the original designer at Dansk. an American firm founded in 1954.

Thank you so much for your information, It was incredibly helpful. I though it was a bit earlier piece due to the strangeness of the pictorial markings but there you go… I am very grateful.
