Our collections consist of precious metal and non-precious metal (brass and base metal) and they are often plated with 18K gold. The metal may darken or tarnish with normal wear. We recommend gently wiping the metal surface with a polishing cloth, however, excessive polishing will rub off the plating and is not recommended.
