Brass is Back...

...in a big way, and it's not like your parents' brass knick knacks from the 1980's.  It's fresh and of the moment.  Maybe we have Kelly to thank for its resurrection?  She's been using it in her designs for years, but I for one was not ready to embrace it till now.

Used as accents, like jewelry in a room, brass brings a little added sparkle.  It's like gold's older, bohemian cousin.

Brass is mixture of copper and zinc alloys.  The lacquered brass is sealed and shiny.  The unlacquered brass patinas much like copper.  You can clean it with commercial brass cleaning polish and fine steel wool.
