Nice Yema, I guess you would be better off by polishing the crystal, less work and it will remain original.

Thanks Peter, i was wondering why nobody noticed this fine gem. At first i was under the impression i could not polish it due to the curved metal that surrounds it..but at a closer look, you're probably right.

I was surprised how the glass got scratched with that curved surround in the first place but shit happens.
You might push the glass out as it seems to be sitting within a translucent gasket.
Cutting a new glass is usually quicker and easier if you have the equipment. Jewelers have state of the art machines and can polish edges but this is pricey.
