L C T signed and numbered  piece  was very sick (Louis Comfort Tiffany).  Years and years of use had deposited a coating on the inside of the vase.  The deposit was so thick it made the glass vase opaque. The worst  I have seen in forty two years of cleaning sick glass .  It was a beautiful vase and well worth the effort.

 

 

 

 

 

Started the polishing of the inside

 

 

From opaque to translucent with a lot of polishing
