Steuben Design: A Legacy of Light and Form

Steuben glassware has been justifiably acclaimed as the pinnacle of the American glassmaker's art for the past hundred years. Steuben Design: A Legacy Of Light And Form by Mary Jean Madigan showcases Steuben's colorful and complex history, internationally recognized artisanship, and demonstrably uncompromised standards of production quality. Profusely illustrated with 120 illustrations (46 in full color) Steuben Design combines vintage photography and a journalistic approach to chronicling the painstaking process of designing, forming, finishing, and engraving a piece of Steuben glassware. Enhanced for the reader with introductory texts and extended captions, Steuben Design is a welcome and recommended addition to any glassware connoisseur's personal collection and would make a popular addition to academic and community library American Art History reference collections as well.
