Unfortunately, it will never see the light of the Swap - I broke three of the little "petals" off the top. :( There was also some glaze crawling, probably from my repair attempts. I broke it after it was bisqued and before it was glazed. I tried wet-on-bisque with paperclay but it didn't stick. I tried to repair it with brickset/refractory cement and that didn't work either. I could use some superglue but the broken pieces are not yet glazed. My next plan it to fire the little glazed pieces on stilt points, reglaze the crawled areas, and try superglue. It won't be good enough to swap but may be good enough to keep.
