A vacation is a wonderful time to pamper yourself – and/or your spouse – with a special and spectacular gift. How about Roman glass jewelry? It definitely makes a statement and will be a great reminder of that fabulous vacation you took together.
But what about caring for this delicate jewelry? We were recently contacted by Jane - a woman in quite desperate need for help. "I bought a Roman glass pendant on a cruise ship," she told us, "Somehow the color of the glass changed to an ugly shade. Is there a way to clean Roman glass jewelry, or is there a way to repair it?"
Most jewelers will tell you that if roman glass is damaged it can't be repaired, but this is only true in some of the cases. In fact, most jewelers will answer that "there's nothing to be done," because they actually don't know what needs to be done.
Because Roman glass is very delicate not many jewelers will know how to fix it. However, the jewelers who will know how to fix it are those who are located as near as possible to where the glass was found. And since roman glass is found widely in archeological excavations in Israel, the best place to have Roman glass jewelry fixed is at Baltinester jewelry in Jerusalem.
If you're debating about cleaning Roman Glass Jewelry or fixing it, your best bet is to contact Baltinester. Send a digital photo of the damaged piece and we'll be happy to give you our expert opinion on whether or not the jewel can be fixed, and if it can be fixed - we'll be happy to fix it for you. Your jewel will be as good as new and you'll be able to wear it, in all it's brilliance – for many more years to come.
