Thanks to @Vash for the great deal on this used authentic Vanilla. Since it was in well used condition I figured it would be a perfect candidate for a patina.
How it showed up:

After a little wire wheel action:

Getting started:

As it sits now:

In about 3 1/2 more hours I'll rinse it off before going to bed, totaling 8 hours of forcing patina. Using ammonia, baking soda, and kosher salt. I'll clear coat it tomorrow if I like the result. If not I'll sand it down and start over.
