Request of Symposium Attendees

At the request of numerous Symposium attendees, the CMOG Hot Glass Demo Team has agreed to put together a program on Saturday morning, September 17, to discuss glass making formulas, techniques, and tools. The glass artists will attempt to recreate an object from a Carder Steuben design in the all new Amphitheater Hot Shop. This will be an exciting and informative program that should not be missed, and is one of many great presentations at the upcoming Carder Steuben Symposium, September 15 – 17. How could you think of missing this?

I was just at Corning for the GAS conference in June and took some photos of the Blaschka exhibit.

This Year’s Presentation

This piece was previewed to those attending the Symposium last year as part of Eric Hilton’s presentation. Another past Steuben designer, Peter Yenawine, will present this year plus those attending the Symposium will have the opportunity to see a demonstration by Harry Allen, creator of the Steuben Piggy Bank.

Ocean’s Pulse by Steuben

designed by Eric Hilton

Limited Edition of 5. Signed and numbered.

Four distinctly separate blocks of pure crystal interconnected by the sometimes magical, reflective quality of glass provide abstract patterns of both clear and opaque surfaces stretching far beyond the boundaries of the material. Designed by Eric Hilton in 2015, the glistening, varied textures of Ocean’s Pulse are achieved through countless hours of copper-wheel engraving and Steuben’s unique monair process, all by hand. The glass rests on a base made of Birdseye maple, stained to match the waters of the sea.
