For many years collectors of- his- toric antique porcelain have been bringing their treasures to Miss de Lessepps to be restored. Her deft fingers have worked wonders with figurines, vases, cutglass bowls and hand-painted plates. She also from time to time Jmproves the appear- ance of articles made from old wedgewood and mahogany. Miss de Lessepps' implements in- {clude a dozen mixtures of cement, spirit lamps, blow pipes, glues and numerous devices for use in glazing and painting. Her cements are made by formulas of her own dis- covery. She is working on a pro- cess for mending cutglass and Vene- tian glass by the blowpipe method, by melting broken edges.and weld- ing them together instead of using glue or transparent cement.
