use a wire coat hanger or something similar make a hook on the end stick it down inside and use the hook to pull the broken piece out

You should put a few drops of some kinda cooking oil around the rim and let it seep in. After that try the hanger idea again.... If that doesnt work, mabye submerge in a pot of hot water to loosen it up.

As a glassblower....Glass breaks, and that is our job security.

Just wanted to chime in that, the hanger move has helped me countless times. Sorry to hear about the breakage though.
