Appreciating Shiny Things

“All that glitters in not gold” is a
well known saying and of course is
true. Despite this truism, it is worth
remembering that other metals and
materials have their own shiny and
appealing character even though
they do not command the monetary
value of gold.

Antique copper has a beautiful
pinkish glow under
soft lighting. Brass and
patinated bronze can reveal
lovely reflections and show
interesting highlights.
Glassware and lustre-glazed
china produce delightful
shiny effects. Silver has an
unique charm which seems
to improve with age.

Appreciating shiny things is
a pleasure to all and we at Affleck Bridge
Antiques have in stock a good selecion of
pieces worthy of reflection.
