<p>[QUOTE="gregsglass, post: 36617, member: 78"]Hi mango89,</p><p> I like your vase for its form. Your little pin tray needs work but please do not polish it. Treat it like an antique bronze. Put in into a small plastic box submerged under cheap olive oil and cap it leave it for a week or two and then wash under hot soapy water. The "greenies" will either be gone and leaving a wonderful patina OR still be present and needing a longer soak. This wonderful hint comes from the coin board and you know how they HATE cleaned coins.</p><p>greg[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
