Shukado s color is a navy blue black that is shiny and resembles black lacquer. It mostly used in small quantities due to gold content. An item which does not have that shiny blue black patina may not be accurately described as shakudo, so if polished and looks like bronze there is no way to know if the item is truly shakudo. Large vases are normally not ever shakudo. It will NOT return to its patinated color if left to air. The patina is made of copper sulfate and must be applied and heated and can be waxed when finished. It is a terrible misnomer to call shakudo which is the alloy itself a technique that implies using multiple metals for inlay. That is like saying oil paint is impressionism. Though shakud is sometimes used as a general term for damascening damascened decorative objects of Japanese origin, it is not an accurate use of the term.

unreferenced date December 2008 Image Swedish Windsor Chairs.jpg thumb right 250px These Swedish Windor chairs are an example of traditionally finished woodwork. In woodworking and the decorative art s, refinishing refers to the act of repairing or reapplying the wood finishing on an object. In practice, this may apply to the paint or wood finish top coat, lacquer or varnish . The artisan or restorer is traditionally aiming for an improved or restored and renewed finish. Refinishing can apply to a variety of surfaces and materials such as wood , glass , metal , plastic and paint , although in Britain, when referring to wood or wooden furniture it is commonly known as repolishing. There are a great variety of both traditional and modern finishes, including the use of Faux painting faux finishes. One interesting modern development in refinishing is the art of distressing or antiquing, making the finishes of pieces look older. While refinishing is often undertaken to salvage an old piece of furniture, in the case of antique furniture refinishing has been known to significantly reduce the overall value of the piece. However, refinishing or repolishing a more modern piece of furniture, to return it to showroom condition, will always enhance the value.

Fran ois Vaillancourt born 1967 is a Montreal based Canadian painter. Fran ois Vaillancourt has a formal training in fine art s and graphic design . After 15 years working as an art director in various Advertising agency advertising agencies , he started painting again. His work plays upon the contrast between very fluid backgrounds and central images which are hyper realistic using a technique that deliberately mixes raw and refined. Each painting bears witness to the fact that time leaves its mark on objects with patina and deformity indelibly defining an ephemeral moment. His approach cannot be defined or confined by material. Instead it has been chosen solely as the best means to a beautiful end. His work, mostly acrylic and ink on canvas, has been featured on book covers and was the subject of two shows, one in Montreal and the other in Quebec city.
