Hello,
today I am posting the pictures of my most resent commission, two small round pedestal tables painted in black. This commission was not a restoration, but more decorative. It was plating with genuine silver leaf. The first thing I did was apply a dark blue paint to prepare the surface. The process is the same as gilding with gold leaf. To finish I gave two coats of protective varnish because silver will rapidly turnish. I like the final touch, a slight patina to give an appearance of antiquity to the tables. Thank you for Reading.
