where is the glass?
A blog is no good if you never use it. Finally we are updating with our 2012 schedule. Now that is done we have a question: where has all the glass gone? In the 1980s and 1990's we repaired tons of glassware. Ladies would bring goblets in groups of colors or style. They entertained. We don't see the glass coming out on the market for sale. Has it been passed on to you? Or sold or given away? Or does mom still have it? Tell us your stories about your glass or the glass you grew up with.
2012 Schedule
We have been in business since 1981 offering quality repairs on all types of glass and crystal.
We specialize in repairing art glass and cut glass. We have a full cutting shop for the repair and restoration of American Brilliant Cut Glass.
All types of glass can be repaired such as Waterford, Baccarat, Daum, Cameo, Hawkes, Lalique. Goblet chips can be removed. We provide daubers and internal stoppers for perfumes. Stoppers can be seated. China mending is available also.
