Hi Lin,
Thank you for the nice comment... the color comes from a liquid chemical antiquing solution, then I rub it with steel wool till I get the final color I'm looking for. Then I clear coat the entire piece to preserve the color.

Hi Lin,
Is it for sale? What size is it? Do you have a photo of the finished product? Is it possible to have one made which isn't treated?
Thx Shell
