    Welcome, Amy. It would help to know dimensions on these and how much liquid they hold. Why did you say Japanese? Glassware like this most often comes from eastern Europe.

    I assumed they were Japanese because my mom told me they were from there. My Grandpa brought them back while in the Navy. I think you are correct, maybe not actually Japanese at all.
    Now looking at it more closely there appears to be a grape design. There are They are 4 and half inches tall and hold a quarter cup of liquid if filled to the top.

    I'd have thought Czech if the quality is good, but central European anyway. They might have been purchase in Japan in a PX. Stuff travels.
