Improvements in or connected with the Application of Oil Colours.
I, GEORGE DE RANZI, Vicomte de Vercelli-Ranzi, of Villa Mon Loisier,
Neuilly sur Seine, Paris, in the Republic of France, do hereby declare the nature
of this invention and in what manner the same is to be performed to be particu-
larly described and ascertained in and by the following statement:-
This invention for improvements in or connected with the application of oil
colours has for its object to enable oil colours to be used to imitate embroideries
and similar designs on fabrics, leathers, wood, glass, and other materials, and
consists in providing a mixture to be added to oil colours to prevent them from
running so that the designs shall have sharp outlines.
The mixture is composed of turpentine, spirits of wine, white varnish, and a
glaze varnish. A portion of the spirits of wine may be replaced by eau de
Cologne or other scent. When this mixture is added to oil paints it renders them
perfectly pliant and elastic so that it is not liable to break or chip and has an enamel
like surface.
Fabrics ornamented as above described may be used for dresses, curtains, screens,
panels, bed covers, table cloths, mantel borders and the like.
I have found in carrying my invention into practice the following proportions
will give good results:-
Essence of turpentine
Rectified spirits of wine
White varnish
A glaze varnish
Eau de Cologne
