Origin of Broken Wine Glass....Help!
« on: November 29, 2008, 09:36:18 PM »
I have a set of two wine glasses. They are simple glass (no etchings, etc) that are glue/mounted to a ceramic painted stem. They hold a lot of sentimental value for my fiance and I and the other night (after ten years of using these glasses!) I broke one. So now, I am trying to figure out how to replace the glass and have new glass remounted/glued/whatever to the ceramic stems. Any advice? I have done some google searches but am coming up empty handed so far..... :-\   The picture attached is not our wine glass but a good example of the construction of it....

Useful recommendations for glassmakers will depend on where in the world you are.  :)

That makes sense in hindsight. I am on the East coast of the U.S. in Virginia, near the Naval Bases in Norfolk, Virginia.  ;D
