My Grannies decanters. Who made them and when?

[DiggerDave in Pa.]

My Grandmother gave me these decanters. They are a funny yellow-green color and clear where they were cut. They are 15" tall. Any input will be appreciated. Thanks for looking! DD.

I don't know about the origin of your decanters. They appear to be of 'cased glass cut to clear' OR possibly 'flashed glass cut to clear.' If the green glass flouresces under ultra violet light, it may be 'uranium glass.'

I don't think these are older than TOTC, but who knows. You may be able to use the above as search terms for your research.

Or Vaseline glass.
