Today, I broke my mother's Tiffany lamp from the 1920's. Practically crying, I raced onto the computer to try to find one to order before she comes back in three weeks. The lamp is worth over twelve thousand dollars, and the only way I'm getting one is if I lived 90 years ago. FML
viola98 tells us more.
Clarification: I broke the lamp by complete accident. I was vaccuming my living room and I caught the edge of the vaccuum on the end of the coffee table, and the light went crashing to the ground. I did tell my mom, and she was initially upset, but the lamp itself didn't have any sentimental value, making the situation a bit better. It was a vintage lamp she got at an auction in France. Thank you for your concerns and comments, haha, I've learned my lesson.

Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

If you have liability insurance under your homeowners policy then you could report the accident. Insurance may pay the fair value of the lamp. Don't throw away the pieces.

Suck your tears up. If it was an honest accident I'm sure your mother will understand.
