How to care
After washing a brass made item, dry it thoroughly with a soft cloth to avoid water stains on the surface. They are hard to remove and unsightly.
How to care
Brass can be polished to a brilliant gold colour using a brass polish and a cloth; for tough tarnish use fine steel wool; buff for the best results.
How to care
Age old patina on brass creates a beautiful contrast with golden polished details; do not over clean it. Modern brass items fake patina to get this effect.
