Leaded glass window repair?
I have leaded glass windows in my 100 year old house and someone threw a remote control across the room at someone else and broke one of the panes! The suggestions on the website are old, and regular window repair doesn't work because the glass panes are held in place by strips of lead, which requires special expertise to work with. Does anyone have a recommendation?

Try asking at Stained Glass Gardens in Berkeley on 4th Street. It's possible they do repairs, or know an active stained-glass artist who can do the work. There are two other places listed on Yelp in this area, Feral Studio and Avalon Glass, both getting 5 stars. Finally, the Crucible in Oakland teaches glass classes, and while this doesn't include stained glass, some blown-glass and glass-fusing artists may have stained-glass experience or know folks who can do this work.
Be forewarned: it's not likely that glass matching the broken pane is made anymore, though there may be something close.
