ive pulled this up from wiki:
Steuben Glass Works was an American art glass manufacturer, founded in the summer of 1903 by Fredrick C. Carder and Thomas G. Hawkes in Corning, New York, which is in Steuben County, from which the company name was derived. Hawkes was the owner of the largest cut glass firm then operating in Corning. Carder was an Englishman (born 18 September 1863) who had many years' experience designing glass for Stevens and Williams in England. Hawkes purchased the glass blanks for his cutting shop from many sources and eventually wanted to start a factory to make the blanks himself. Hawkes convinced Carder to come to Corning and manage such a factory. Carder, who had been passed over for promotion at Stevens and Williams, consented to do so.
In July 2008, Steuben was sold by Corning Incorporated for an undisclosed price to the Schottenstein Stores Corp.,[1] which also owns 51% of Retail Ventures, a holding company for DSW, Filene's Basement, and formerly Value City Department Stores; Value City Furniture, which changed its name to American Signature Furniture; 15% of American Eagle Outfitters, retail liquidator SB Capital Group, some 50 shopping centers, and 5 factories producing its shoes, furniture and crystal.
On September 15, 2011, Schottenstein announced it was shutting down Stueben's Corning factory and Manhattan store, ending the company's 108-year history.

Can you pass on a nice diamond ring?
I tease because I feel like you passed because of me. I don't know if I would have picked up the chipped piece either. Maybe...
Do not feel bad! I have missed so much cool stuff. Sometimes I dream about it. Bad dark dreams.
You are not alone.
It must be Kluk Kluk tossing time of year.

That's not the exact one from the auction, I got mine from the thrift, and I remembered when I told you I passed up a Steuben once. I'll post mine tonight. It looks like there is matching glasses , so I'm going back to see I can find them.
