Steuben Glass Works, an American art glass manufacturer, started operation in 1903. It was founded by Fredrick C. Carder and Thomas G. Hawkes in Corning, New York. Carder’s great love was colored glass, and he had been instrumental in the reintroduction of colored glass while working at Stevens and Williams in England. Carder began to experiment with colored glass and continued experiments that were started in England. He soon perfected Gold Aurene which was similar to iridescent art glass that was being produced by Tiffany. Gold Aurene was followed by a wide range of colored art glass that eventually was produced in more than 7,000 shapes and 140 colors.

Steuben Glass Works continued to produce glass of all sorts until World War I. At that time war time restrictions made it impossible for Steuben to acquire the materials needed to continue manufacture. The company was subsequently sold to Corning Glass Works and became the Steuben Division. Production continued until about 1932.

By 1932, the nationwide depression had limited the sale of Steuben and there was also a lessening of public interest in colored glass. Steuben thereafter produced primarily colorless art glass whose production continues to this day. Steuben did still produce colored art glass, but mostly to fill special orders. The last known sale for colored art glass by Steuben was in 1943.
