I found these in a thrift store (only paid $2 each) and I KNOW that they are antique, I just have NO idea what they are!!!! They are glass, this wonderful blue color, they are opaque, and the sundae cup has a WG intertwined on the bottom.... no dates, (none that I can see anyway) and its DRIVING ME NUTS!!!!!

Maybe Blenko????
Although Blenko is usually somewhat see-through and probably not yet old enough to be antiques ( I think Blenko started in the late 40's, early 50's)
They're very pretty though.

I think that you are right!!!! This is the logo that is on the bottom....
