2 plate hanger configuration with steel in center.Hangers are 3" from steel in this configuration.

From left to right: bright nickel, dull nickel, bright chrome, dull chrome.

 

If I were a better photographer, I could probably get a better representation of the actual finish on these, but here's a brief description to help visualize the different finishes. The bright chrome is the shiny-est silvery finish--just like the chrome parts you'd see on a motorcycle. The bright nickel is similarly shiny, but it's a darker finish. It almost looks like it has a brownish tinge compared to the chrome. The dull chrome has a satin finish that looks light blue compared to the others. The dull nickel is most similar to titanium, but still a little more silver than grey.

 

The chrome is actually a second layer over the nickel. The platers say that the chrome is the most durable. The nickel will tarnish over time in a way that the chrome won't.

This is a photo of the former Superchrome Plating in Los Angeles, CA. Superchrome specialized in plating industrial parts primarily for the aerospace industry. I don't know when this picture was taken or who took it. Based on the vehicles just barely visible on the right hand side of the building I would guess it was taken in the 1950's or earlier. The building and tower were demolished around 1995 as part of a CERCLA Superfund removal by the U.S. EPA. I was a Response Manager for the contractor that conducted the cleanup and demolition of the buildings. I don't remember where I got this photo, it may have been salvaged from the office in the building before we demolished it.

 

The 100' tower was used to hoist long parts that were dipped into a 45' deep chrome vat below it. Unfortunately that vat as well as others leaked chromium contamination into the ground. We had to excavate a lot of soil that was then treated and disposed of at a hazardous waste landfill. You can see the bank of 3 large transformers just over the right side of the Superchrome sign, these plating shops used a lot of electricity in their process.

 

On a side note, one of my laborers rescued a kitten from inside the building before we demolished it. It followed my crew around the site for a while walking through the chromium contamination. I remember its paws were yellow from the chromium. I told my wife about the kitten and she said "don't come home without it". I live near Seattle so that meant taking it to the vet, getting a pet carrier and putting it on a plane. The cat (Hank) lived to be 16 years old and had a very good life.

Plating from a British WW1 Torpedo boat destroyer, Lelant, Cornwall.

 

Grid Reference: SW 5500 3777

see multimap

also google maps (aerial view)

 

looking in "Lost Ships of the West Country" by Martin Langley and Edwina Small, published by "Stanford Maritime" in 1988

 

This is a Torpedo Boat Destroyer, parts of the port side and superstructure built into the bank around 1920, at that time TW Ward (based in Essex) had a shipbreaking yard here (they had another 12 nationwide) and were breaking redundent vessels from WW1. The identity of this ship is unknown.

 

the book suggests this ship could be a veteren of Jutland.

in the photographs where the plating has collapsed you can see the fill of material behind, this includes a lot of reinforced concrete lamp posts, which I think are post 1945, it is suggested that these plates were built in the bank in 1920 to help reduce erosion, which makes me wonder why there is a later fill. I think it possible, although I have no evidence, that it could be the side of a wharf with a wooden floor on the top built to quickly expand the size of the wharfs here where they were ship breaking, these later became unsafe and some time after the second world war the space behind the plates was backfilled -all in my imagination unless someone can find some evidence.

Seared day boat scallops with saffron gnocchi and poached lobster on a pool of green puree. The golden sear and bright sauce make a polished, colorful plate.

Made from 1/4" plexiglass with nylon screws and nuts.

Classic and elegant in a luscious warm 14K yellow gold plating, with a stamped 925 Solid Sterling Silver core, this is an elevated version of the coveted, prohibitively expensive, sideways cross necklace seen on celebrities like Kelly Ripa, Jennifer Lopez, and Taylor Jacobson.

Extremely well made, this delicate cross pendant is not drilled through, causing the beautiful lines of the cross to look truncated or unrefined. This sideways cross has the tiniest of soldered loops attached to each end of the cross pendant seamlessly blending it with the petite cable chain, as if magically suspended in mid air. Simply perfect!

Each connection point is securely soldered, and will never snag or open. The petite lock and all connectors are made in ITALY.

A chic and modern version of the timeless Gold Cross Necklace. This standout necklace makes for a striking yet perfectly fluid addition to any outfit day or evening.

    

Measures: Adjustable from 15.5 - 17.5 inches( 2 inch extender chain with decorative gold teardrop )

The Cross measures .8 inches (just short of one inch length wise)
