    I spotted these last year on the bottom shelf in the thrift shop. There are eight. Each glass is slightly different than the next one and all show that pale brown tint (what's that?). There are tiny bubbles within the glass.

    These glasses live in my display case. :-)
    Thanks, All~!

      They may well be earlier Bonnie. I have a pair similar that my grandparents got as a wedding present in about 1920. I think they were then considered fruit salad dishes.

      OH, racer, that's interesting! These glasses/dishes are substantial - a fair bit of glass was used in creating them.

      Will you post yours so I can take a look?

      Measures 2 3/8 inches high and 2 3/4 inches across the top. I see what looks like a highly polished pontil on the bottom, too. Glass is not my genre.

      I would love to but they are in a box somewhere in the scary room.....

      @racer4four > Hahaha! The "scary room"? Is it haunted? I'll be right over!!

      I have one of those "scary rooms"
      Boxes full of collections...mostly pottery and glass.
      I love to go in my scary room and dig.....like Christmas all over again!
      When I'm ready to change the décor in a room ...I have plenty of stuff to do so with.
      Plus my older sister sometimes "Gift" shops in my stuff.

      Sounds just like my scary room Melanie.
