David Chadwick-Brown “Tour de Force”
Ivory vase (shape #7321) (rear left) We know the names of some of the great glass craftsmen who worked for Carder. I feel a special affinity here, knowing the name of the artisan. The sister of Joe Sporer provided the information, which was so appreciated, and reads: “Ivory Steuben Glass – Tour de Force. Executed by Joe Sporer to show his ability as a gaffer at Corning N.Y.”
