Crystal Repair Wine Glass with broken stem

Crystal Repair Wine Glass with broken stem

May 9th, 2015 by Marc Konys - posted in All Repair Projects, Antique Glass Repair, Broken glassware, Broken Stem, Stemware Repair

These wine glasses were sent from Italy for restoration. They survived  two world wars and succumb to a family move. They hold many memories and toasted many events .

Luckily the bowls were not damaged .  They were in need of a stem and foot transplant.
