First, an Answer
Alan, These paperweights were made after hours or on the lunch hours and taken home in the lunch box to be given to family and friends. The Knoll was the home of the Houghton family of Corning Glass Works, and Mrs. Houghton lived there to over 100yrs of age. The Banquet room was used in the 1990’s for Corporate function and fund raisers. Today you are able to reserve it for public functions, such as wedding, fund raising dinner, etc.
