Best Broken Glass Art Repair

A Missing Limb? (On Your Art Glass Sculpture, That Is.)

Not To Worry – Get A New One!

Whether your favorite art glass sculpture is contemporary, or perhaps an heirloom piece, handed down through generations of your family; you no doubt have this treasured piece secured for display. Perhaps it is in a cabinet, or mounted on a sturdy pedestal on a shelf. You enjoy having your glass art admired, but you just want to use proper precautions to keep it safe.

Just as Murphy’s law states, “Anything that can go wrong will go wrong.” This means that the one time you get it down to dust around it or offer it to a dear friend for a closer inspection, you break it!

No doubt the shock will cause a tear to roll from your eye, but not to worry. Carefully gather up all the pieces and contact your nearest glass repair professional.

In real life, if you happen to cut off part of your finger while cutting the grass, perish the thought, you can’t just make or grow a new one. (Boy, that would be handy, wouldn’t it?) But when repairing art glass sculpture, the glass art repair professional can actually do just that! Take a look at two examples where Venetian glass replacement parts can be particularly useful:

  • A dislodged head or limb Your prized Venetian glass art sculpture of a Brazilian monkey, or perhaps you prefer domestic dogs or cats, is now sporting a broken leg or a missing ear. One thing you never want to do is drench it with a “super” adhesive, attempt to stick the two together, and pray for a miraculous connection. It simply won’t happen. What it will create is one big mess! Your repair professional can actually craft Venetian glass replacement parts to restore your sculpture to its original beauty. Instead of trying to reattach that broken leg or ear, the other leg or ear can be removed; and new ears or legs crafted to mimic the old ones - and then reattached to the sculpture. The result can be virtually seamless.
  • A broken base or foot You might have a Venetian glass bowl or urn that has a foot or pedestal as a part of the art glass sculpture itself. It certainly makes for a lovely floral display or fruit bowl. If that foot or base happens to get broken, the beautiful bowl or urn can no longer stand upright and is not only less attractive, but also not very functional. By removing the broken elements and using them to craft Venetian glass replacement parts, the artful piece can be one again. The replacement parts look very much like the original and can be seamlessly reattached to the main portion of the piece.

If you have a broken art glass sculpture, know that it is possible for an experienced professional to repair the piece to its former beauty. A broken foot or limb does not have to be the end of your favorite Venetian glass art.
