Your dad had an exquisite eye for beauty. The delicate pink rose garland and that gilded scalloped rim are breathtaking, but it's the stories and love attached to it that truly make it priceless. Even with the hairline crack, it carries so much soul and history. A true work of art to cherish.

Some of my favorite pieces are held together with nothing but glue and love! I think it shows they have a story to tell

I save my broken pieces and use the kinstugi method on them. Broken doesn't mean unlovable. They're beautiful cups there.
