Hi, welcome to tnet. I think it was part of a decanter set originally and without the rest value drops a lot. I did a search too and couldn't find anything on it or comparable, I don't know how much it would be worth by itself.

Try taking some pictures from different angles so we can see what is depicted around the sides of the objects.
Any markings at all?

Notice the soldier with the ballerina has only one leg.

The one legged soldier gave me a clue. I think this whatever it is might be based on the fairy tale by Hans Christian Andersen called "The Steadfast Tin Soldier" about a tin soldier who falls in love with a ballerina :thumbsup: Everyone dies at the end, in case you are wondering.

Thank you all so much , I wasnt able to pull up this Coll glassware .. but thank you all for your help.. I will try to look more into it.. but really wanting to sell it.. but had no idea of the value... so all this helps .:)

like I said i have tons of older things even have stamps but also not a stamp collector thus makes it hard to know anything about what I am trying to sell....

I think he meant "cool" glassware not "coll" just to clarify so you don't research wrong thing. Good luck,
