Copper leaf behind glass: doors, panel and bathroom bowls. Struggled with adhesion, but finally got this process sussed. It looks really cool and will age sympathetically, nice and dark. I ll developed a method to apply metal leaf (incl copper) on acrylic sheet as well.

Loose walnut veneer, missing veneer, oxidised polish, not a pretty sight. Stipped back and frensh polished the instrument. Added the lost gilt detail and the candle stick and this big boy looks fabulous again.

Nice old mantle clock. Top warped and most of the gilding gone.
The black surface needed polishing and the gilded incised decoration was gone also. All the brass castings are re-gilded also.
A nice overall challenge with a fine outcome.
