<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dgbjwc, post: 244702, member: 308&quot;]I took ascot&#039;s advise and forwarded my photos to the Carder Steuben club which agree with ascot&#039;s assessment.&nbsp; They sent me the following response:</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><b><i>Thank you for your inquiry.</i></b></p><p><b><br /></b></p><p><b><i>I can see the resemblance of your bowls to Carder Steuben Verre de Soie, but I do not think they are.&nbsp; Verre de Soie is an iridescent glass like yours but it has a &quot;smooth&quot; looking finish, not the &quot;dotted&quot; finish that your bowls have.&nbsp; Also, like you, I have not been able to find a matching shape.&nbsp; Other manufacturers made glass like Verre de Soie (Powell and John Walsh come to mind) and so there is often confusion about proper identification.&nbsp; I&#039;m sorry that I can&#039;t be more helpful.</i></b></p><p><b><i><br /></i></b></p><p><b><i>Thank you for the compliments on our website.&nbsp; We have worked diligently to make it a useful and easy to use website for information about Carder Steuben.</i></b></p><p><b><i><br /></i></b></p><p><b><i>If you have a continuing interest in Carder Steuben glass I would be happy to add you to the distribution list of our Gazelle Gazette.&nbsp; The Gazette is an email based newsletter that we distribute free of charge to member and non-members alike.&nbsp; Just let me know if you would like to start receiving it.</i></b></p><p><b><i><br /></i></b></p><p><b><i>Complete membership information for the club can be found on the home page of our website if you are interested in supporting the club by becoming a member.</i></b></p><p><br /></p><p>I sent the gentleman who responded to me a thank you note and told him I&#039;d be very happy to receive the Gazelle Gazette.&nbsp; Off to research!</p><p>Don[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
