Before & After

This Commode was stenciled using a gold mica and glaze mixture. 22KT gold leaf was applied to all the molding and legs. A patina was added to soften the gold and give it a more lustrous appearance.

 

Before & After

A perfect example of the finished piece justifying the effort. A rather odd-looking 'patio' type table is transformed into a piece that would look good and be quite practical in any entryway or sitting room.
