Chemical Patina on a Bowl // How-To (Ep. 71)

In this video I show how I apply silver leaf to the outside of a bowl that I turned. The wood is Butternut supplied by Matt Cremona, Minnesota. After I turned the the bowl I painted the outside with shellac based white primer and then blue Japan color oil paint. I have a video on the entire process of metal leafing and gilding with a chemical patina if more detailed information is needed. The difference is I use loose leaf metals for curved surfaces vs transfer metals for flat surfaces.
