Greetings all:

I need to repair several awards that are glass or crystal.  One is a crystal ant whose leg is broken off, and the other two art glass sculptures were on either a metal or wood base that became unstuck from high humidity.

Any recommendations on glue types?  Are UV bonding agents trustworthy? What works best and what is considered archival?  These awards belong to E.O. Wilson, so I don't want to mess them up!

Thanks for any recommendations proffered...

Mary Beth
