[QUOTE="Roshan Ko, post: 817696, member: 11243"]Hi Everybody This is a glass vase with silver overlay work on it. I am not sure if it is Venetian glass with silver overlay. In any case, the base has broken. I was planning to get a silver base made for this, and then stick it in. However before i go on spending this kind of money - I wanted to know is it worth it? In the sense, is it worth spending good money behind this, which may not be worth anything per se. I know its a difficult question, but to rephrase and quantify - would you spend USD 100-120 to get this restored. i.e. add a silver base to it. broken bottom [ATTACH=full]192595[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]192594[/ATTACH] Base which is broken [ATTACH=full]192596[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
