Antique Bent Glass Lamp Repair

Changing the light bulb was traumatic for the antique glass shade.   It fell and the majority of the panels were broken.

Most of the top pieces were broken and some of the bottom pieces.   The top pieces were the most difficult to fit.

Antique Bent Glass Panel Lamp Repair

The antique lamp had many broken panels and some of the metal pieces were missing.  I used old glass to make the matching panels.  The glass was an old pattern that isn’t made any more.

I have old glass stock  that matched the broken panels. I believe it was made by Mississippi Glass Company.
