Joan, I'm delighted and quite amazed by your restoration of my Sevres' urn lid! The fact that you were able to restore it underneath where it is signed -- even more astonishing. There is no evidence this piece has ever been less than perfect. Thanks again! I would highly recommend your work to anyone needing restoration work on their fine porcelain. Lisa W.
