Looking to recreate this finish.... can you help a girl out?

I am matching a vanity to this mirror. Any idea how I should attack it?

My shot in the dark -

Looks like a brown-red undercoat, folllowed by gold leaf.  Then scraped / scratched through (with steel wool?).  The verdegris green color looks like it is on top - brushed on and wiped off to leave it in the crevices, and maybe spattered randomly.

After a closer look, it looks like it starts with a wood base, and some of the gold and the red have been chipped / scraped  clear down to the raw wood.

the gold/bronze looks a lot like one of th specialty foils that's out. over a greenish base distressed back.

Use the Colonial Green Stain & Seal for the final rub of the tealish color....trust me.  I love that color.  I ordered it awhile ago thinking it would be good for another project I was working on at the time...it is fabulous for that patina look

Check into Modern Masters Metal Effects paint. Looks like a normal reddish brown under tone with Metal Effects gold dry brush applied with green patina solution.
