Fixing a mug handle
Ok it finally happened. One of my favourite mugs has had a handle broken.
It comes from the states and was custom made. I use it everyday.
Wife knocked it off the counter she put it on
The mug itself is not damaged. Can I glue the handle back on good enough to use.
Some of the glaze is lost so there will be some exposed porous areas.
Please tell me how best to 'fix' it

My work mug had its handle superglued back on about 10 years ago, and it's still good. Washed by hand, not dishwasher though.
But there's also this: Selleys Porcelain Repair - Adhesives | Selleys Australia

Thanks. The super glue. Just regular supermarket stuff or something a bit better?

It was the 5 for $1 blister pack stuff from Colonel Clints Crazy Bargains. Hummm, that might mean it was more than ten years ago....

Super glue is good for small cuts, too. No woodie should be without it!
