1 Patina; 2 Patina
pat·i·na 2 (pāt'n-ə, pə-tē'nə)
n.
1) A thin greenish layer, usually basic copper sulfate, that forms on copper or copper alloys, such as bronze, as a result of corrosion.
2) The sheen on any surface, produced by age and use.
3) A change in appearance produced by long-standing behavior, practice, or use: a face etched with a patina of fine lines and tiny wrinkles.
One Patina celebrates 59 years soon.
The second Patina celebrates 89-1/2 years.
In the antique world, a patina is a very good thing . . .
