These were from a local estate here in Maryland, where I was able to buy 1918 Old Morgantown Champagne glasses and Fred Press cocktail glasses. She liked her barware.
This pattern and style, I cannot find in my glass book or online.
I hope someone can tell me who made them and pattern name.
They are 5 1/2" tall and hold 12 oz.
Sort of heavy footed base. No hallmarks
They also have a nice ring tone when finger is run around the rim and clinked so I wonder if they are crystal.
This lady had stored them in w.m. dalton verite boxes but as you see, they are not those glasses. She had marked them high ball though I think they are a little big for that.
Thank you in advance.
Welcome to CW:)
shape looks like possibly this Libbey flat iced tea with another décor. It is common for Libbey to use the same glass with various décors:

Libbey has the blanks in a 1948 Safedge Premiums catalog called 'heavy base' tumblers; this size would be #453 iced tea.
the cutting might be by Libbey's in-house decorator, as they had purchased Rock Sharpe by this time; so the specific wheat cutting may be undocumented.
Thank you TallCakes, looking into this!
hi! just stumbled on this. I have matching water goblets that I think my Mom purchased when we lived in Maryland and I recently found 7 more from a nice dealer in Frederick, MD on EBay http://www.ebay.com/itm/Set-of-7-Vintage-Floral-Fern-Etched-Crystal-Wine-Water-Iced-Tea-Glasses/222544835730?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649
Thank you isalinda, that is awesome. Thanks all for the help!
