[Jewelry making - Article 00492] - [Orchid] Patinas on mokume

    I am hoping someone can help me. I have a twist pattern mokume bangle
    bracelet of nickel silver, copper and brass. In the book Mokume Gane
    A Comprehensive Study by Steve Midgett on page 22 there is a barrette
    by Stephen Walker, I'm interested in the coloring of the red and rich
    yellow/gold tone. I think that is the copper and brass which has been
    patinaed (I may be wrong). Can anyone recommend a solution or receipe
    for a patina to get these results. 

Thanks.
