I made this Teapot from Pear about six months ago and treated it with a copper metal effects oxidizing paint then treated it with an aging solution to give that green/blue look tint. Try as l may l just could not get it right, either too much or too little. After several attempts l read that if left alone in time it would naturally achieve the same results. So I placed it in my screened in porch and forgot about until this week. I did not notice the spider under the handle until l brought the photos up on the computer. Guess l need to clean it up now and take another photo so you can see how it turned out, and fire the cleaner.
