Daum Glass Vase repair chip
Monday, August 23rd, 2010 Posted in All Repair Projects, Antique Glass Repair, Chipped Glass Repair, Crystal Repair Pictures, chipped glassware | No Comments »Daum glass has a satin finish and it makes repairing chips very difficult. This vase came in with a chip on the side of one of the leaves. I polished out the chip to a shine and then had it match the satin finish. The satin finish is coarser than the frosted on a LaLique Crystal .

LaLique Crystal broken Base
This LaLique Crystal piece was sent to me from Florida for restoration. The crystal base had a large chip broken off the corner. The piece that broke off had been lost many years ago so bonding the chip back one was not an option.
By removing the entire base and making a replacement I was able to restore this glass .
The LaLique Rams are ready to go back on diplay.

Saturday, January 9th, 2010 Posted in All Repair Projects, Antique Glass Repair, Crystal Repair Pictures, chipped glassware | No Comments »American brilliant cut glass punch bowl and pedistal with minor chips on the saw tooth was sent to me for repair.
