VINTAGE COPPER COMPOTE

Description

COPPER COMPOTE
7 INCHES ACROSS, 4 INCHES HIGH is starting to get a nice patina on it, so from the color of this it has been around for many years.
After Several Years (depending on the environment), the tarnish gradually changes to a dark brown or black color before finally turning into a distinctive blue-green. The patina coating is what gives the
STATUE OF LIBERTY its trademark appearance. And it’s why corrosion isn’t always a bad thing after all.
Copper oxidation, however, creates a decorative patina coat that not only retains aesthetic appeal, but also
prevents further exposure to oxygen and curbs corrosion
. And it’s why the metal is used on roofs, gutter work, and outdoor sculptures.
Some of the green is starting to show around the top lip
I POLISHED A SMALL SECTION ON THE BOTTOM TO SEE HOW BRIGHT IT IS POLISHED.
