Default glass necklace needs repair

Hi,

I bought a glass circular neck piece with an off-center hole
through which a cord went. The cord pulled out of the
finding and the glass piece fell and broke. It was in two
layers. The pieces need to be put together like a puzzle in
two layers. What glue would be recommended?

Thanks,
Jo

LEXEL... I wouldn't recommend weldbond if you wear it in the shower or
swim. I tend to forget to take my jewelry off or i simply just don't
take it off. Weldbond does not hold up well in moisture unless the
piece is sealed thoroughly. It also takes forever to dry when you put
layers of glass together. I would use Lexel. Its waterproof, crystal
clear and dries in about 48 hours. Local hardware store should have it
where the caulks and sealants are. Just make sure when you put the
pieces together you use a good bit and press all the air bubbles out.
You can use a razor blade to clean up the excess when its dry.
