wine glass repair broken crystal stemware
September 6th, 2010 by Marc Konys - posted in All Repair Projects, Antique Glass Repair, Broken glassware, Stemware RepairThe wine glass has a metal stem but the crystal bowl was broken and needed to be replaced. The top of the wine glass is held in by an adhesive. I used a diamond drill bit to drill out the broken stem out of the meal stem.
I found a wine glass with the same shape bowl and cut it off its stem. Using an adhesive I bonded the new crystal top to the metal stem.
I repair all kinds of stemware. Water glasses, wine glasses, rock glasses and cordials most of them just have chips. Its cost effective repair crystal the repairs are fraction of the cost of replacement.

I broke the stem of a steuben martini glass….Century pattern. Can it be repaired, even if one small chip is missing?
Thanks,
Bob
