Ok, bought these mostly because of the beautiful colour. I have a Hadeland 1950s "Greenland" bowl, but it's sick and no hope of restoring, other than having it ground, which I would never do.
Anyhow, at first, I thought they were Blenko just because of the double spout. But they're not. They're wine rinsers.
I thought they were mid-century looking but I can't find a single one that wasn't early 19th century.
I'm having a hard time believing they're early 19th century. There were six. All absolutely mint condition. A few scratches on the bottom but that's it.
Any ideas? Am I missing something?

thanks Aunt Mark!
I just plopped them on the stacked outdoor chairs in my backyard so you could see the colour!
🙂
Hope you're having a nice weekend!
Tomorrow, Junction Flea! Hoping for some fun finds.

Well, post snappies of any treasures that you happen to drag home (except highly personal items, natch).
Happy trails,
Aunt Mark

A huge pet peeve of mine is...
A huge pet peeve of mine is when people are looking for an ID and then post a pic with no real reference to size. Knowing a wine rinser is about so so in size is a clue but some may not recognize the term.
Soooooo at least tell how tall they are. Also a shot of the bottom might be helpful. Edit: never mind the bottom, I missed the shot above. I believe Blenko did make some of these but I believe the all had pontil scars on the base.
Is the base concave ground?
Last edit: I dont see much wear on the base so maybe a 20th C repro? If no luck here check with the fine glass folks at Glass Message Board, link below
