If you are a handy person who can solder the top back on again and fix the lamp please message me. The few broken bits of glass are still there. The lamp is very beautiful when lit but I think it would be too expensive to have it fixed professionally . A Christmas project for someone?

As usual, please put 'NFP' (not for publication) in your comment if you don't want it included in a travel article. Cheers.
