What the hell is this… found in my grandmother’s crockery cupboard šŸ§šŸ•°ļø At first, I thought they were strange plastic bars, maybe cocktail accessories šŸ¹ or pieces of an old Christmas tree ornament šŸŽ„. But no: they were glass, light, fragile, and obviously made with care ā¤ļø. Thin lines, translucent colors—orange, yellow, green… Different shades, but all shaped the same way: thin, with a little ā€œbun:gā€ next to them. I held them in my hand, wondering: what could they be used ā€¦ā¤µļø

Are They Valuable?
Monetarily, they’re usually not worth a fortune—but sentimentally and historically, they’re priceless.

Collectors of vintage barware do seek them out, especially:

Complete matching sets
Unique colors or hand-blown variations
Pieces from the 1940s–1960s
More importantly, they’re a reminder of how much care once went into even the simplest household items.

Final Thoughts
What started as a confusing discovery turned into a quiet moment of connection across generations.

Those strange little glass bars weren’t random at all. They were part of your grandmother’s life—her dinners, her guests, her celebrations.

Sometimes, the most mysterious objects aren’t strange at all.

They’re just waiting for us to remember how they were once used. šŸ•°ļøāœØ
