Before. After.

Perhaps the most pitiful light I ever came across: a 1920s Pan semi-flush.

 

And with a wave of a magic wand…

 

Under the mess, I was startled to discover a luscious original polychrome. On the main body, the finish beautifully transforms from a kinda gold to a darker reddish gold. The transformation is subtle and masterful. I only cleaned this!

 

Golly.

    Ross your vintage lights are so beautiful. Especially this one.

    You have some mad cleaning skills, to get it so beautiful without losing any of the patina.

    I don’t know how you work this magic. But this sort of cleanup does feel magical! That poor thing — it looks beautiful now.
