I have a piece of flow blue that needs repair consisting of the tureen underplate and ladle.It was knocked off my sideboard.Does anyone have an ideal how much I can expect to pay for the repair?

I did professional pottery repair for years, I would need to see pictures, but if the under tray was broken in half, and you have all of the pieces, and wanted the repair undetectable I would say that it would be at least $100.00, most likely more. And that is just for the tray.

Oh too bad, I would say it most likely isn't worth it to repair, it would be cheaper to go purchase another one.
