Gold plating old African bracelets - silver, nickel, copper, bronze

May 3, 2009

Hi, I don't know if can be done but have old African bracelets - probably made of a combination of silver, copper and nickel. I want to have the plated in gold - similar to what I have seen of old Tibetan silver money melted down and dipped in gold. the finish is kind of a mat finish - very rustic looking.
