Hi! Today, the restoration of an antique handmade powder box of the 19th century. This item was purchased and found in France. The thing is unique and beautiful. I see this thing for the first time, I found information on the Internet. It's this powder box. The condition of the item is average. One part is ruined, there are dents. It's a handcrafted powder box. Okay, I'm starting to recover this item.
First, I tried to clean the surface with detergents and tooth powder. The contents of the compact are strange, some kind of cement or mortar that has petrified. I barely cleaned it with the help of a boron machine.
I decided to replace the ruined parts of the powder box with a new one made of brass. I made a copy of the primitive drawing and carefully broke it out. Next, I cut out a new brass circle and soldered it with silver around the circle.
I cut out the new drawing with a metal cutter and darkened it. Next, I made chain links and a small spoon out of thin brass wire of the desired diameter. After that, I processed everything manually.
And as usual, I conducted a test for you. Share this video, please do not forget.
Sincerely, Alex. Thanks for attention!
Good luck and health to everyone! With best wishes, Alex!
