Art Nouveau Aurene Hanging Lamp
Steuben Glass Works
1910-1920

This exceptional four-light chandelier exemplifies the pinnacle of American Art Nouveau design, featuring iridescent Aurene glass shades created by the renowned Steuben Glass Works. Founded in 1903 by Frederick Carder and Thomas Hawkes in Corning, New York, Steuben became America's premier art glass manufacturer during the early 20th century. The chandelier's graceful form and naturalistic motifs demonstrate the masterful integration of botanical inspiration with sophisticated craftsmanship that defined the era.

The fixture displays remarkable attention to detail, with its elegant gilt bronze frame shaped by magnificently fluid scrollwork and organic motifs. Its four arms are crowned with delicate floriform shades of lustrous Gold Aurene glass, and their iridescent surfaces shimmer with warm tones of gold and amber, creating an enchanting interplay of light.

Frederick Carder's development of Aurene glass represents one of the most significant achievements in American art glass production. Gold Aurene, first introduced in 1905 and produced through 1930, required exceptional skill to achieve its signature iridescent finish. Master artisans sprayed hot glass with iron chloride at precisely the correct temperature, creating the mesmerizing golden surface that made Steuben's Aurene glass internationally celebrated. Carder's innovations placed Steuben among the most prestigious glass manufacturers alongside Tiffany Studios and Quezal.
