I won these in an auction - not sure if they are worth anything - there is no mark on the bottom of the glass to identify and I searched the web to no avail....the taller one is 6.5 inches tall without the top on and imprinted with an "O" - not sure if this is a monogram or not. the top is hand-blown glass - very nice!
The round one is approx. 5. 5 inches tall w/out top and etched with the floral design - also has a nice heavy all glass top. Any help identifying is appreciated!!

The decanter on the left and in the centre is French circa 19th Century. It has 2 classic french elements, the all over background etching and the break in the line of the decanter between the neck and the body. I have several french decanters with that distinctive break in the outline and I have a couple of 18th century decanters, where there is a main etched motif and then a smaller background motif. I used to have one with a similar background to yours but I sold it a couple of years ago. I have seen others similar to the one on the right, but I don't know where it comes from. I hope this helps.
