Do you call these?? Individual caraffes, mini's,condiments ,what??
They are 3 3/4" tall and have a cork wrapping underneath the vinyl wrap. There is a hard to read label between the cork and the glass. I think it says Welco Company. Found Welco on the net, but nothing like theses. Pyrex etched on the bottom. So 60's!

They could be marmalade jars, but most likely condiments. From the color of the knobs, I'd say you have a ketchup and mayo jar. Bet there's one out there somewhere with a yellow knob for mustard.

duh, hadn't thought of ketchup and mayo. Was think milk and sugar, or maybe honey and jam, but that red knob would mean some hot sugar, baby! <g>
If they are condiments though, why have the cork lining? I have seen Pyrex coffee and tea pots in a similar shape with the cork lining, but nothing this small. And most Pyrex cold servers, such as juice , do not have the cork.
I just found these. Never heard of a hottle before...

My first thought was hottles, too, but my hottles don't have the lid with the hole for a serving spoon. I'd be willing to bet these aren't hottles!
