from Wiki:
Steuben Glass
is an American
art glass
manufacturer, founded in the summer of 1903 by
Frederick Carder
and Thomas G. Hawkes in
Corning, New York
, which is in
Steuben County
, from which the company name was derived. Hawkes was the owner of the largest
cut glass
firm then operating in Corning. Carder was an Englishman (born September 18, 1863) who had many years' experience designing glass for Stevens and Williams in England. Hawkes purchased the
glass blanks
for his cutting shop from many sources and eventually wanted to start a factory to make the blanks himself. Hawkes convinced Carder to come to Corning and manage such a factory. Carder, who had been passed over for promotion at Stevens and Williams, consented to do so.
