Default 1960s/1970s loudspeakers/speaker grilles

Can anyone please identify the make and/or model of these? I've seen pictures of these recently but not the real thing. I thought they might be Pye or GCE. Thankyou.

I think the ATC cabin at Lasham airfield had some of these too.

I seem to recall seeing them many years ago on some Pye Telecom gear. Not on the ordinary pmr though. Possibly on a custom built control position? The badge in the centre of the picture looks about right size for "PYE" lettering.

Thankyou robin. I thought they looked Pye-ish.
