History
These were given to my mother in her early life by her aunt (mother was born in 1923). They have always been displayed in a glass buffet cabinet, never exposed to dust, etc.
These are what's called "Cranberry Glass", it was originally made during the late 19th Century , but was extensively reproduced during the 1980's, which brought down values for it across the board. Today at auction you might get $40.00 for the pair.
