" The subject is immersed in the boiling solution. The surface darkens
gradually during the course of immertion, initially tending to be drab
and rather uneven, but later becoming more even and generally darker and
richer in colour. When the colour has developed, after thirty to forty
minutes, the subject is removed and washed in hot water. It is dried in
sawdust, and wax finished when dry".
Ho boy! I would like to be able to write something like that.
but unfortunatly I can't. Just replace 'subject' by 'object' and
you get the original text from: The colouring, Bronzing and
Patination Of Metals.
