    Sometimes a company would paint a piece to change an unpopular color into something they could sell on the florist/decorator market. What's underneath is probably better than the paint.

    Might be recent, made in China or so but better than the ugly paint. Will finish it when I get home.

    Is it glass? Plastic? Looks like tutti frutti something.

    Nice work. It's all about the discovery.... only occasionally about what is discovered.

    Yes, water helped but it would have come off even without.
