Paper circles that go around beer glass stems

Does anyone know what these are called?

They are circular paper with a cut-out that wraps around the stem of a bulbous beer glass to catch drips.

I cannot think what they are called and want to order some as I am fed up with getting wet every time I take a drink from a bulbous beer glass with a stem.

They are not beer mats.

In Dutch they're called druppelvangers, literally: drip catchers. I believe that's what they are actually called in English.
Usually they're sold wholesale in the hospitality business.
Pubs with brewery contracts often get them for free.
Be prepared to buy in bulk.

Done some research and they were hard to find, but it seems they are called 'drip collars' in the UK.

They also seem hard to source to buy, but I will find somewhere.

I did find one place that just sold 8 in a pack, and because they were printed with some famous brand beer name, they were not cheap.

Write to the beer company and tell them how wonderful their beer is and could you please have a few drip collars - never know your luck,
