    Definitely glue it. Use thin cyanoacrylate. I have done quite a few repairs on fragile natural stones, it works great. The seams where the stones come together on a close-fitting break like that are so thin that there is hardly any CA there and it can't even be felt.

    SailorJ,

    + 1 on the cyanoacrylate ('Superglue') glue.

    Glue the piece back on to the coticule with the 'Superglue', sandwich the coticule between two (2) sheets of cling film, and put some weights on top or clamp well.

    Let the glue 'set' for a day or so, then flatten coticule as normal.

    There is some good information here :

    Have fun

    Best regards
