These are etched cocktail glasses variously called "rocks" "low ball" and "whiskey". Popular in the 1950s and 60s, these have a wide range of prices (some sets were sold by Libbey; others were more exclusive). A link for a good mid-range example tinyurl.com/y5dj6szb.

Cool! Very mid century modern!

They could be Cera (usually signed) or Culiver, although I have not seen the exact match with the decorated rim.

It appears the pattern is cotton bolls (cotton flowers).

This site specializes in vintage drinkware. Hopefully they can give you the brand:

I am also wondering if this is Culver Glassware - Founded in Brooklyn, New York over 70 years ago. Famous for using 22 karat gold in it's designs of decorated glassware in the 50's and 60's. I would want you to be sure about these glasses because if they are Culver , they would more valuable than other brands.

My grandmother had glasses looking exactly like this she told me thirty years ago that they were fifty years old. And that trim was gold. She was a godly woman never accused of lying but she might have been mistaken or lied to by whoever she bought them from.

But she had them for most of that fifty years. Her time line would be accurate. As far as real gold trim. Who knows? Putting them at eighty years old today

These belonged to my gram as well! I remember them from when I was a kid so at least 50+ years old. No idea when she got...just trying to find out what they are. Tons of gold out there just not this exact one yet.

Not sure but if I had to guess Id say try looking up Culver Glass, popular for 22 and 24 kt gold prints on old fashion and other drink glasses.
