Frederick Carder and Steuben Glass: American Classics (A Schiffer Book for Collectors)

This is an excellent reference book for the developement of the colored Steuben Glass. Which is exactly what I was looking for as an Art Glass dealer. The history regarding Mr. Carder although important to the glass being made, and Steuben's developement, was at times a little difficult to follow. The best part of the book is the large number of pictures of glass produced and of sketches for different designs. I would suggest this book to anyone looking to improve their knowledge of Steuben's colored glass and the Carder period.

An excellent book with great color pictures of beautiful Steuben Carder glass. I really like it. It was from a library and in very good condition.

Perfect companion to Gardner.

packed with information, must have, well written.

Frederick Carder and Steuben Glass by Thomas P. Dimitroff is a monumental book. The photographs are fully documented with dates, shape numbers, descriptions, measurements, etc. The text is complete with footnotes. It is a beautiful coffee table book as well as a scholarly text. Information relating to identification and the relative rarity of the various types of glass Carder designed is examined in detail making it a "must have" for collectors, appraisers, or anyone with an interest in Steuben glass.
