Coromandel.
! have two old-tashioned hints for this ) trouble, but I should think it might be | wiser to have a good picture framer look | at the gilt and see if it needs renewing properly, especially if it is a valuable | picture. The hints are these: (1) Rub gently with a cloth moistened with | methylated spirits or oil of turpentine. | It may also be applied with a fine paint | brush. Leave fo dry. 2. Boil up some onions in water, and clean frame with that, using a soft cloth or soft brush.
