Sidney B. Waugh

American glass manufacturing company Steuben Glass was founded in 1903. In 1933, Steuben developed a formula for a prismatic, crystal-clear glass. Sidney B. Waugh, a sculptor who was interested in glass as a sculptural material, became Steuben’s chief associate designer. Under his artistic direction, the company focused on creating modern design that relied on the principles of balance, proportion, and truth in materials, creating objects highlighting the naturally curving forms that glass can take while molten. Waugh produced the Diana design, which appears on this bowl, in 1937.
