Depends.
Tariffs on some products, but not others.
Thus far, the price of glassware hasn't been effected.
Could change tomorrow.

Won't change prices to Asia (from China) I would guess, it might even drop there, as the demand may drop until the tariffs get sorted out.
Many of these tariffs won't take effect for a while, hopefully by the time they start taking effect, China and the US will kiss and make up. Muke of
this is two leaders trying to show how powerful they are by being stubborn, eventually both will have to have their minons negotiate a deal that both
can claim is a victory. That is what minons do.
None of the trade deals between the US and Canada or mexico have even be finished, but the trade wars in North America stopped months ago.
