Absolutely, Barry,
And it would most probably have doubled its price just a couple of years ago ... Items like that preserved in virtually untouched condition for hundreds of years are logically getting fewer and fewer each day due to crude overcleaning - SO PLEASE DO LEAVE YOUR ARMS THE WAY THEY ARE! Remember: you can always take something off old surfaces but you can never add a patina 'both convincing and real' ... at least for an experienced eye, that is. I guess I repeated that many times on the forum anyway ... Best, Michael Last edited by Matchlock; 27th July 2012 at 10:46 PM. |
