First time using Nara Paper

I purchased Nara paper on Poshmark.ca last week and they arrived yesterday.  https://posh.mk/1tJaa0cPj3b I was excited to try them as I have only used Yupo to date.  Here is a 5 minute experiment and I am quite satisfied with the outcome so far.

WIP, some new Alcohol inks

I will adding them as I finish mounting it on card stock and taking photos  Example of it enlarged and framed This batch was an attempt to reuse some of my rejected pieces of yupo. I completely ran out of new Yupo so I am making do with what I have. I used  mostly white and black which give the pieces an enamel look as these inks seem thicker. The white softens the color underneath and the black hides it. There are sections that have been scraped away with an old credit card, revealing what was there originally.  These were the only 2 that where completed. The rest need to be revaluated.

Antique Birks Sterling Sugar Caster Shaker or Muffineer

I love a good find and here is a perfect piece that I spotted recently. It was the intricate design that caught my eye and the engraving on the middle. I thought it was something similar to a Thurible which is a metal incense burner suspended from chains which is used during worship services.  When I picked it up, it had good weight and then I saw the stamp on the bottom indicating Birks and Sterling along with the hallmarks. It looked as thought someone had scratched their initials on it as well. I was unsure what it was used for but it was unique and well worth adding to one of my #randomthingsicollect.  So this is an antique Sterling Silver sugar caster, also known as a sugar shaker or muffineer, often featuring intricate engraving with foliate motifs with a pierced cover for sprinkling sugar. Some examples date back to the Georgian or Victorian eras. Here is a picture with only the top was cleaned. I figured I'd better take some photos b4 I got it all cleaned up as I love ...
