Modern Steuben-Post 1932

Post Carder Steuben at the Redlands Historical Museum

This is HGM Steuben No 19. The label describes it as a Steuben 8″ footed bowl which is unmarked. If it is Steuben, it is probably post-Carder. I have seen it on ebay several times as a Steuben piece (a piece of information which is worth nothing) but never with a shape number. I have a note here that it may be c. 1959 but I neglected to put where I found that info. Joann Tortarolo

Shape #7437

10 inches high

This is HGM Steuben No 20. The label on the pice says that it is a Steuben 10″ vase in pale jade with an inverted rim over ovoid body. The label says it is marked on the underside Steuben. Joann Tortarolo
