<p>[QUOTE="gregsglass, post: 348301, member: 78"]Hi,</p><p> I was volunteering at the Met and started to talk to her. I was asking questions and we just hit it off. She was sooooo stern in the beginning, I was scared to death of her as was everyone else. I was cleaning some old ceramic pieces and asked her if it was okay to use wax on the spot that I did not want to clean as protection. She asked me why I would want to do that. I replied that I was not sure if it was glazed and might have been an old repair. Then she showed me what to use and the guy who was teaching me was so amazed when I gave him the piece i was cleaning. He asked where did I learn to do that. When I explained that Madame showed me. He was shocked, she did not even talk to him for many years. </p><p>greg[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
