Editorial Reviews
Book Description
For 100 years, Steuben glass has represented the epitome of American crystal--internationally acclaimed, a gift of presidents, the treasured possession of generations of collectors. In this lavishly illustrated book, revised and fully updated to celebrate Steuben's centennial, Mary Jean Madigan traces the company's fascinating history and the manufacture of "the most perfect crystal the world has ever known."
Madigan provides an illustrated identification guide to virtually all Steuben pieces made since 1993, from one-of-a-kind museum objects to functional items such as glasses, candlesticks, bowls, and vases.
