What's the difference between verdigris and patina?

I think (not sure, but no one else has piped up) the difference is stability. The defining element of a patina is its stability, while verdegris describes a problem that might or might not be active corrosion.128.174.89.239 14:07, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

What is this line supposed to mean?

"When creating a forgery potato mold is added as a substitute for Patina."

Is the following more accurate?

"When creating a forgery [antique sculpture?] potato mold is added to create a patina."  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.35.153.160 (talk) 02:30, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
