Kaweco Supra Forced Patina
I picked up a Kaweco Supra recently with the intent of customizing the patina and then freezing the patina in place. This was my first attempt. Before I attempt to lock the patina in place I'm going to let the natural patina form a bit more. Would love to hear your thoughts.

Very nice! Can you share your secrets on how you accomplished this?

I have done this by accident on the inside of my Supra by having Diamine Chocolate ink leak and "stew" in the closed lid for a while. Yours is more artful.

Cupric nitrate does a wonderful green on brass and bronze.. Just be carful of the fumes!!! Clean with simple green and maybe very light rubbing with a scotch bright to cleanse the surface first.
