Faberge
Carder Steuben Club member Scott Coots has an appreciation of the decorative arts that leads back to the 19th century Russian greats – Khlebnikov, Ovchinnikov and of course, Faberge. After a brief period of collecting Tiffany, Scott was introduced to Carder Steuben by friends in Painted Post, NY, who have since assisted in encouraging Scott to grow his Steuben collection. Scott will be sharing pieces from his collection at the Carder Steuben Club Symposium, September 19 – 20 in Corning, NY.
