I’m really happy how this piece came out! This is a real brass piece, not a plated piece from India.

Before & After!
I spent 2 1/2 hours to clean, wash, polish over and over again for a customer of mine. Mostly by hand. That’s why it takes so long, but as you can see, it’s definitely worth it! Good brass comes out so beautiful 😍 I know she will love it!!!

Before and After…This small brass bowl, I love the detail after I cleaned & polished it. It took some work, but it was worth it. I knew it was gonna come out nice! This is what magic is made of!!!

I’m Happy!
The first lamp I ever made! I took the base and cord off an old lamp, totally cleaned & polished it, then rewired it with all new fixtures. Used a cage from a newer lamp, bolted it all together, then put a Feit LED Fairy bulb…And walla…There it is!! I’m pretty proud for the first one! I think it came out pretty sweet!!!

Before & After
I really love this vintage fish serving plate. It originally had a cover that went over the top. I don’t have that piece, but I wish I did!
What I really love is it’s made of several different metals. Brass, copper & silver plate. Really cool!
Made in Turkey!!!
