<p>[QUOTE="808 raver, post: 9760684, member: 4654"]May I ask where abouts in the world are you? The reason for asking is this maybe a finish I'm not familiar with, my experience is with shellac from the lac beetle or in other words French polish. I have antiques 200 years old finished with shellac and none go like this. I was trying to pin down the age by using the finish and this to me looks like the age has been created rather than happened. Maybe some other ingredient was used in the finish that goes like this over the years?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
