It's not very expensive (under $10) and you can get it in several finishes. I have black and copper.<br><b>References : </b><br> You can buy a patina to use that is specifically for solder/metal.

Rub it over all the areas you want coloured, leave it to dry then polish up the glass. You could also try rubbing a raw lemon over the lead and leave it to dry. This will react with the lead and hopefully make it look darker.<br><b>References : </b><br> I’m not sure if they use black paint or not, but what I suggest is using liquid black boot polish.
