Oils from your skin in addition to oxygen in the air accelerate tarnishing on brass. Generally, brass corrodes when the zinc, copper and tin components of brass alloy are exposed to water. Oxidized brass is typically blackish, green or blue, and hardens like a thick crust over the surface of the brass. This coating usually flakes off and can be removed to reveal the shiny brass surface. Size: 35 mm x 35 mm // 1.37 x 1.37 inchesMaterial: Brass metalMade in Japan Show more
