Here's an interesting story of broken porcelain vases and their
reconstruction:

It's a great documentation of the reconstruction process in stills and
videos.

Somebody fell down the stairs and knocked over the vases.
I bet they have moved the reconstructed vases or have secured them behind
glass.

GEESH !!!

Had these folks known about the skilled craftsmen
on clayart they could have found someone on the
list who would have cranked out brand new
replacement vases in less time and for less money.

And without imperfections!
