Chipped Crystal Glass
No the inside is often at a different tension which is why one chip leads
to more and more.
Horrible stuff if damaged. If it was part of a set, if you know the
company they might be able to sell you a replacement.

We have a chip in the rim of a crystal glass. I have tried emery to
smooth
it - but really it needs the whole of the rim grinding down by about 2
mm.
Should this be possible? Will it be satisfactory as it seems tha the rim
is
moulded rather than cut?
Not moulded so much as partially melted as
the glass was made from the blob of crystal.
Any advice on sourcing a repair if advised?
Not fixable IMO.
