Question
I have a lovely bedroom waterfall bedroom suit, but one of the pieces of amber glass from the vanity is missing. Is there anything I can do to? Thanks in advance.

Answer
Hi Lisa
Nice to hear from you.
Most all glass can be replaced.
When I need mirror or glass I go to a store that does nothing but replace glass..very easy.
But I'm a little confused here.
You say Amber glass. Is this a mirror or a piece of amber colored glass that sits on the vanity top.
And is it original to the piece?
Get back to me.
Regards
Eileen

Hi..I can answer most questions about the repairing,stripping and refinishing of all your old furniture and wood items(the things we call antiques)I can give advice about what to buy/avoid at auctions/flea markets. I do not give appraisals on antiques.

Experience

I have been refinishing antiques for the past 30yrs. While I have taken several courses over the years,I have found that "hands on" learning is the best teacher. Perhaps I can help you avoid some of the mistakes I made while learning.
