I was searching where to get some aged mirror for my new project- Don't know where to get it tho.

found it in this website, they do mirror patina - so wanted to learn! Maybe I should go take some chemical lesson..
Waterfall
This patina creates a cascading “waterfall” effect which showcases any combination of colors, finishes, patterns and logos beautifully. The colors shown here are tropical blues, greens and pearls. Any color combinations can be used to create a custom look.
Skin Print-
Combined with the desired style of patina, these skin prints can create a mirror like no other. This one of a kind Crocodile Skin shows beautifully with it’s lightly aged gold coloration. Many other types of skins are available as well including Zebra, Tiger, Snakeskin and a Larger Crocodile Skin.
Bohemian
This unique style of antique mirror patina is distressed in order to showcase larger areas of color and finishes vibrantly through it’s larger openings. Being one of the most versatile patinas, a wide array of designs, patterns, logos and finishes can be incorporated to create beautiful works of art.
Coral Stone
A truly unique patina creating irregular patterns and pits within the mirror allowing a wide array of colors and finishes to show through. This pattern can be combined with some other finishes, lettering and patinas to create a unique work of art.
