Can You Repair Damaged Glass Furniture?
What is one of the most beautiful pieces of furniture your home can contain? Answer: Glass furniture. It can look dramatic, elegant, simple, or, depending on the style of the piece, very modern. In home decor, one of the most popular materials is glass. There’s a good reason for that. In just about any home, it’s an excellent choice because of its versatility and beauty.
To make a space feel more open and larger, glass is frequently used. If, in your home, you already have glass furniture or you are considering purchasing some, you might be worried about its continued functionality. If it’s damaged, what do you do? Is it even repairable?
The answer to whether or not you can repair damaged glass furniture is, “Yes!” What needs to be replaced and what needs to be repaired, however?
Keep the Following in Mind
Where repairing glass furniture is concerned, there are a few things that you need to keep in mind:
- Is the piece frosted or tinted?
- Are the pieces of sentimental value?
- Where is the piece located?
- What is the size of the piece?
Simple Repairs
If a crack or chip is smaller than the palm of your hand, it’s generally possible to repair it. Additionally, if the damage is not front and center, it can be better repaired (think at the edge of your tabletop, one or two small chips).
Repairs That Are So Easy
It may not be worth repairing a piece, however, if the damage is significant. You might be better off replacing the entire pane if, for example, a cabinet door glass pane has completely broken. Replacement will be more cost-effective and time effective, more times than not. This is also applicable to damage that is exceedingly noticeable. You might replace your entire glass top for your dining room table if, for example, right in the middle is a damaged area.
Sentimental value, as well as the location and amount of damage is important. In a just-purchased cabinet, you may decide to replace the glass. On the other hand, for a family heirloom like an antique mirror, you may decide on repair.
Last but Not Least
Whether or not you want to repair the glass can also be heavily impacted by the presence of frosting or tint. Repairs will likely be visible if the glass is frosted or tinted. That’s not going to be acceptable for many.
