If you let the candle burn down to the glass it will break.  The flame got to close to the glass and broke the top.  I have made many new tops for crystal candlesticks.  The teardrop candlestick by Steuben is my favorite.

A every common event after dinner is to hear a little ping sound .  Yes you forgot to put out the candles and they burnt down and broke the top of your antique crystal candlesticks .  I used a pair of bobeches to recreate new tops.   Crystal repair requires a little out of the box thinking.

Glass blowing is the key to this repair . With out the ablity to make new parts this broken crystal candlestick would end up in the trash. This antique crystal candlestick will make many more Christmas Dinners.
