Hi all, Looking for some repair advice on the repairing the glass lampshade shown in the photo above. It got accidentally knocked against a wall, with a sliver of the glass breaking from the middle of it. ( Not completely shattered thankfully) Just wondering is it possible to fix this? All advice appreciated. Thank you.

Superglue if you think it can be positioned correctly and quickly as the open time is so short. Otherwise Araldite epoxy, with a longer open time you'll have more opportunity to position the sliver correctly. When dry trim off any excess glue with a razor blade.
