How do I fix a chip in the corner of a thick glass table top?

The entire table top is in perfect condition except for a couple of chips to the underside of one corner that was damaged when moved. Table top had a value $2500.00 when new. I really like it and would not want to discard it as trash. Please help.How do I fix a chip in the corner of a thick glass table top?
You can purchase a clear epoxy from a stone tool supplier. Use the epoxy and mix it with the catalyst hardening agent. Use a razor blade and fill the chip. This is how all granite/ quartz counter top installer use to fill nicks chips and such on all their damaged counter tops. They only use a tinting agent in the epoxy to match the color. You on the other hand can use it plain( clear). Once dried, depending on your ability to smooth/ fill the surface, the epoxy would become part of the glass.



Or you can take it to a glass shop; they can fill and polish it out sort of like fixing windshield on a vehicle.
