My mother had these in her China cabinet and might have been her mothers. Other than figuring they probably were for condiments we can't figure what a very small glass spoon would be good for. Hope someone knows.

E-Bay lists them as jam or jelly jars. The glass spoon is the serving spoon.

My thoughts also,Like Mustard, or other such things
The "sticks" have no spoon on then making then useless for serving Jelly or caviar.
Really they look like the daubers that used to come in Mercurochrome bottles.
