    Hi I have seen a finish on silver that i have never seen,, it is in
    the area of an umber and called oxidized silver, in the picture,
    very uniform throughout the bracelet, and polished. Is it possible to
    polish "oxidized silver", so that it is very shiney, doesn't
    polishing oxidized silver, turn it silver color? isn't that what
    polishing is, the elimination of oxidation, or is it a coat of clear
    gloss paint, or something A little stupid over here with a mainstay
    in wood jewelry, but finishes, unusual colors, on metal excite me
    deeply!
