That's what is known as 'Carnival Glass' in the antiques trade (Dad was a glass expert).
You used to get coloured glass for prizes at fairgrounds before 1 week lifespan fish and stuffed toys arrived.
They have such heft, the larger glasses are over 400g in weight and feel substantial in ones hand.
Ha. The original stuff wasn't, cheaply made and easy to break.
Hence why original Victorian examples fetch high prices, there isn't much left in one piece nowadays.
Are these Libbey glasses?
