hello ppicker  -  regret that we can't see all of your champers glass - is it possible please for you to re-post some more pix showing the entire glass - and hope you can include one picture showing the underside of the foot  -  this can often be helpful and sometimes can say more about the item than any other part of the glass.
Do you have an approximate idea of how long these were owned by your grandmother?

and last comment if I may   -   please remember to try and put some indication in the subject heading that refers specifically to the piece you are posting..........         it helps not only to attract the attention of folk who might specialize in this item, but also for future reference  -  the GMB search facility is a great resource, but is only as good as the descriptions we use. 

As a child my mother took me pea picking back in the early '50's (no, not the 1850's ;))  -  back bent double in the fields - and I seem remember eating more than I put in the bag - but you had to watch out for those pods that had maggots. :o         Hope you don't object to my sense of humour, and look forward to your pix.  :)
