Default Fine surprise or "mirage" ... ?

Fine surprise or "mirage" ... ?
to clean my helmet, I use time to time, products from "Renaissance", and "000"
I never got more attention than that, about about the steel bowl, but yesterday ...
I wasn't beleiving my eyes, then, I took those pics

which should be your comment ?
or even your mockery about the capacities of my optician ...

- Johar or not ... that is the question ?

about the helmet - it's a real Persian, end of 18th beginning of 19th century, absolutely "Qajar",
come from a famous French collection, dispersed after estate

- I have difficulty to increase the "Johar" contrast, I
tried with lime juice, even by cutting a lime with blade (as far it's knife is concerning)
I didn't noticed something conclusive ... so ??
