Topic: Look what happened to my glass!

You got that right Leni  :hiclp:. And I've followed that course of action ever since

Or buy a feather one and just tickle it round the glass!

Looks very much like a Val St Lambert vase i once had, probably have been signed though :huh:

I could estimate its value for you now, if you wish

How strange

Hi Andy,

You are right, it does look  like Val St Lambert. I had a lamp once very similar in design and colour.

What would you estimate a price? - just so when I am relaying the story to my friends , I can say "... and do you know it could have been worth £xxx to!'  :cry:

Hi Wes,
 
i was meaning i could estimate its value as it is now, circa £0
You can tell your friends what you like
(i expect if VSL, 20-50 at a guess, when you tell the story, 200-500 )

£200 - £500 it will be for the interest of the tale.   :chky: I will also expand the bang to being an explosion which had neighbours running for the Anderson shelter!

I once had a Holmegaard suncatcher that turned out to have a sun allergy. I hung it in the evening, and the morning after I was awoken by a pop and a clatter as it clean broke in half in the morning sun. Oddly, the half that fell off and struck the windowsill didn't break further. Glass is a very confusing thing when it comes to its fragility.

But a few dabs of epoxy resin later, and it now hangs in a much shadier window.  :hiclp:

Hi Nic,

If you would like another piece for your opoxy collection, I can pop this in the post to you

Leni said,

... But that lives in a cabinet, in a room which is kept at a very steady temperature, so - fingers crossed - it should be OK

This message sounds like a good opportuntity to mention those cabinet items of yours with the interesting reactions, Leni.

Cabinets can suffer from hotspots as the air does not circulate well if airtight. There should be ventilation holes near the top and bottom to prevent this.
