Before. After.

When I purchased the fixture most of the original painted finish was in terrible condition. Much had fallen off, and the rest was flaking off. I knew it would take a ton of work to restore the fixture so it sat, all alone, in storage for 16 years. The poor dear. Finally, I decided that 16 years was too long, and that its beauty had to be again revealed to the world. Wanna see the AFTER? Scroll way down. And be prepared to GASP!

The vivid blue is a near match to the original. I LOVE IT!

 

This was the most challenging restoration I’ve ever undertaken. It was a TON of work. But the results make my heart sing!

    You weren’t kidding! Even with the warning, I gasped and exploded with all kinds of colorful metaphors of expression to the absolute stunning beauty I beheld. I have never seen anything like it. Great job! Wow!
