I have an old glass cruet - the edge of the glass stopper cracked and fell inside.

Afraid to use as-is, might have tiny glass debris breaking off. Can't grab it with needle nose pliers-neck to small to open pliers. Any suggestions how to remove stopper from cruet? Thanks y'all

A long time ago I removed the "widget" from the inside of a Guinness bottle by tying a big knot on the end of some mason line. I dropped the knot into the bottom then inverted the bottle...the widget fell to the narrow neck with the big knot behind it. pulling the string then pulled the knot up the widget and more pulling pulled both of them out together.

Think of the stickiest thing you have around, chewing gum, -whatever. Attach it to end of a pencil or other object long enough to reach the stopper.
