I skipped a lot of steps during this recap. The metal gets oxidized during casting so this is what it looks like fresh out, not cute

I thought so too ๐Ÿ˜† โ™ฅ๏ธ Doing this is like chemistry class in a lot of ways Because we chose bronze, we were able to bubble most of this off in the โ€œpickleโ€ โ€” a crock pot full of citric acid. You put it in soda water after to cancel out the acid The people that did silver, the oxidation actually is mixed in with the top layer of metal. So they had to reheat the piece to open it up before pickling
