What the heck are they?
« on: July 28, 2008, 09:50:44 pm »
I have these and don't have a clue what they are or where they came from. They are very heavy with a checker like raise bottom. I thought maybe they were ring holders. I really don't have a clue.

They are very small about the size of a small flower.  So no candy would fit in them.  I have seen some glass that kind of looks like this but the called it tea bag holders or spoon holders but I do not know what size those other pieces of glass really were by looking at the picture.  Thanks for your reply!
