Questions About Steuben Glass Grapes
- 1stDibs ExpertAugust 20, 2024To tell if glass is Steuben, look for the maker's mark. Many pieces feature a fleur-de-lis logo as well as the Steuben name written in capital block letters. However, Steuben markings did evolve over the years, so it's a good idea to compare the mark on your piece to images of logos and wordmarks shown on trusted online resources. If you need help with identification, use the services of a certified appraiser or knowledgeable antique dealer. Find a variety of Steuben glass on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 23, 2024To identify Steuben glass, look on the bottom or interior for a maker's marking. Nearly all pieces produced by the manufacturer display an acid-engraved marking. On glassware produced before 1932, this marking usually consists of a fleur-de-lis and the word "Steuben." After 1932, the maker used many other hallmarks, which you can find images of on trusted online resources. Comparing the marking on your glassware to these images can help you determine if Steuben produced it and approximately when it was made. A certified appraiser or knowledgeable antique dealer can also help you identify the items. Shop a variety of Steuben glass on 1stDibs.
