Anyone have any information about this High Purity Fused Silica Crystal Paperweight on eBay? It is described to be a Corning Glass Employee Award and related to Steuben and the Hubble Space Telescope.

Googled the heck out of it and could find nothing.

Years ago, saw a Corning employee award, but on the stand had "from Corning Glass in recognition of Hubble Telescope." Rarely see one without some words on display. Doesn't mean can't happen, but I'd be skeptical without proof.
