Default Real leaves dipped in metal

Sorry to jump in here without any history in the group, but does
anyone know if the process to make leaves permanent (veins of real
leaves are made semi-transparent through a filigree process-they are
dipped in liquid metal and every leaf vein becomes visible) is one of
those dangerous-chemical-bath-metal-process things that the ordinary
lay crafter can't do at home?


There is a crafts fair where someone sells jewelry based on this.
I can't think of the name of the crafter, but it can be done.
