<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Any Jewelry, post: 583494, member: 2844&quot;]I have never seen natural patina that looked spotty and unkempt.

And since it is a fountain design, the logical name would be that of a spa town, like Marienbad. Or, if it were Belgian, Spa of course.<img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>I like antique jewellery because of its design and history. If you mess with the design and buff away the patina, you might as well buy repro or modern jewellery.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
