These cordials are 4" high but quite different styles. I have not ever seen one in the egg shape. Could these be made by the same maker and am I correct in calling them cut glass? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

both appear to be EAPG (Early American Pattern Glass). The piece to the left was made by Westmoreland Specialty Co. (aka Westmoreland Glass) in their pattern #920 Hobstar and File, ca.1912; this one is easily mistaken for cut glass due to the sharp characteristics of the pattern. I'll look around for an ID on the cupped piece; the diamond and finecut designs are common to many EAPG patterns.
Thanks for the help TallCakes!
your other piece is also by Westmoreland glass and called Westmoreland; it their pattern #98, ca.1898
Thank you so much! I am now anxious to learn more! The best part of collecting!
