Once again, I'm stuck and I can't find any information on these glasses and I'm hoping someone knows a little about them.
I am sure they would be listed in the "Elegant Glass" Category and be listed as goblets or wine glasses. They have etched flowers and vines on them and measure approx. 7 inches tall by 3 3/4 inches in diameter at rim and they are a very pale yellow/amber color (sorry, couldn't get a good picture today - must be bad lighting).

I wish you luck, I have some etched glass that I can find NOTHING in any of the myriad of books I have consulted.
I don't want to list them under elegant glass if they aren't elegant glass.
Is there an earlier period???

Wow, Niel, what a fabulous site! Thanks for posting it. I've bookmarked it. I didn't realize how many categories were under Elegant Glass.
