[QUOTE="KSW, post: 610801, member: 8708"]Morning all, This lovely little brooch has come my way and I want to restore the damage. Any advice welcome please. [USER=5006]@kyratango[/USER] I know you are expert at this sort of thing! I need to repair the blue enamel and a chip in the green - I’ve got this paint- other than cleaning the brooch should I prepare the area in any way in order to try to recreate the original? What gems or stones would go well on the green flowers and round the outside?. I don’t want to glitz it up too much as I love it’s understated appearance. Any thoughts on its age or origins? Thankyou :-) [ATTACH=full]179592[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]179593[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]179594[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]179595[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]179596[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
