crystal repair broken cut glass punch bowl
September 3rd, 2010 by Marc Konys - posted in All Repair Projects, Antique Glass Repair, GlueingsCrystal punch bowls are very easy to break. The most common way is when the party is over you pour out the left over punch and put hot water in the bowl to wash it out. Old thick brilliant cut glass can not take temperature change. The thicker the glass the more vulnerable to cracking from heat. This beautiful cut glass punch bowl fell victim to hot water in the sink.
I can repair this bowl and it will be usable . The cut pattern hides the repair and makes it very hard to detect .
After the repair the restoration is hard to find.

Do you still repair crystal bowls. Mine looks like the one in the picture. If so how much does it cost?
