We got this set as a wedding gift and I know nothing about them. They are 5 1/2" tall and 3" diam. They appear to be hand blown (several bubbles in the base) and no manf stamps. I've never used them and would like to sell them, but unsure of what to even call them. Any info for this glass dummy would be greatly appreciated, thank you.
Nice Set - Back in my day, we used to refer to these are Mercury Glasses or just Silver Glasses. That is what we called them. Very popular in the 1970's era. Several companies made them in different shapes and styles. Eg: Highball, Lowball, Roly poly.....etc
