| Finally Onyx,
according to Wayne, is the most difficult glass to mend. It was produced
for a very short time beginning in 1886. It is layered glass, usually
found in creamy white accented with metal lustre that has been trapped
between two layers. It becomes very brittle making a repair very difficult.
And yet another piece, possible 2,000 years old may be very strong
and durable making it much easier to work with. No matter if your damaged mayonnaise jar needs mending or your Lalique vase lacks perfection, you can be sure that Wayne will take the same amount of time and care in repairing it for you. A word of advice form the glass doctor, "Whoever you take your piece to, satisfy yourself with an example of what they do. Get a second opinion. Don't go on blind faith" Back to Articles and Reviews Main page |
