crystal repair pressed cut glass table before repair

Press glass table broken in many pieces was sent to me from Cambridge Maryland. It had been in the family a long time and they didn’t think any thing could be done. They went to the internet and ask  “can broken cut glass be repaired”.  That is  how they found me. I have never seen a traditional cut glass pattern like this pressed in a glass so large.  The glass top is close to thiryt inches across I would like to see what the base is.

antique glass figurine repair

Antique glass repair is made a lot harder when like this piece because they tried to glue it them selves.  They used a silicone glue and there are no known solvents for it .  It took a lot of rubbing and scraping to remove the silicone. Then we were able to repair it.

crystal repair cut glass punch bowl

American brilliant cut glass punch bowl and pedistal with minor chips on the saw tooth was sent to me for repair. This bowl stands two feet tall and is a very valuable piece of crystal. It could be a piece cut crystal  made by LIBBY but I look for a signature but wasn’t able to find one. I polished the chips on the teeth and it was a work out because this is a heavy  crystal bowl. The crystal bowl and pedistal just set on one another.
