Antique glass repair is very rewarding. This glass figurine had been broken for years before they found me. Even with pieces missing I was able to complete the restoration.

Waterford Crystal Lamp Repair

Tuesday, November 3rd, 2009 Posted in All Repair Projects, Antique lamp repair, Broken Decanter Repair | Comments Off on Waterford Crystal Lamp Repair

From a pile of pieces come a lamp.  It started with a broke ships decanter she saved for years and then she broke the base to a hurricane lamp . I used the broke Waterford Crystal ships decanter to make a new lamp base. I cut it off and polished the top . I found a piece to an old chandlier and used it along with the old top to the Waterford Hurricane Lamp.  I wish I had the globe to  the lamp.
