5 ½” Mardis Gras Mask Lady
5.Apr.2007This lovely lady came to me glued very poorly. I had to take her apart and remove the old glue. Once those steps were completed, I glued her back together and filled the gaps with putty. Then I moved on to painting the piece.
I used gold foil for the accent on the top of her hat. This is a rare head vase valued at $1,400.
Cost of repairs: $275
