    Looks like a piece of American Brilliant cut glass. Not a very intricate pattern. Assuming it is about 6"D..called a handled nappy.

    In my opinion...1st one...looks pressed..not cut. Other 2 are cut.

    About the 1st one... I found in this website: https://picclick.com/AMERICAN-BRILLIANT-cut-glass-berry-bowl-in-Plaza-153653656548.html an old catalog picture with the name of the pattern "Plaza" but the picture doesn't have the maker. They have other pictures of a bowl with the same pattern.

    Here is the "Plaza" pattern in a vase. https://www.collectorsweekly.com/stories/106691-american-brilliant-cut-glass-corset-shap The description says: "The piece can be found in an old G.W. Huntley Catalog and Perarson's book, Vol. 1 pg 66. The G. W. Huntley and Company were distributors of many different items. The glass they sold could have been cut by a few different companies."

    I hope this information helps you to identify your nappy :)

    Re: 1st dish...Just my opinion, but yours is a variation of the one noted above by Zephyr. Note that the hobstars on yours are not not the same . The pictured one is much more complex.
