What glue do you use to mend a broken swarovski figurine?

I have a swarovski figurine that is a bull fighter and he tipped over in an earthquake and his head broke off. What type of glue do I use to glue his head on?

I have been restoring broken Swarovski's for a zillion years.
I bond them with a special UV chemical and a UV light. see my web site at:

Cyanoacrylate cement (Superglue, Instant Glue) is a very clear, strong, fast curing adhesive that will make barely noticeable repairs on glass objects, especially with clean breaks. The surfaces must be clean and grease-free for best bonding. Since the cement cures rapidly you must be able to press the parts together quickly and accurately and hold them in place for a few minutes. Allow overnight for full strength. Excess cement can be carefully scraped off the glass if any has escaped from the joint.
