They look to be litho printed and probably the frosting is printed too. Always best to eliminate Swankyswigs with these first and you should find plenty on-line with that brand.

Nice.

But definitely not Fiesta, and not Swankyswigs either - I've double-checked the book I have and can't find anything with the frosted background. Ditto screen-printed tumblers by a range of US companies from mid-30s to early 60s.

They look much more modern to me. Possibly something Scandi/ North European about the motifs?
