Blackened Brass Rectangular Hook

About the Piece| This blackened brass oval hook is entirely handcrafted from brass. The brass is blackened and then brushed with steel wool to create layers of color, resulting in a unique, unrepeatable finish. Untreated brass develops oxides over time, imbuing the piece with a distinctive patina. This coloration appears almost alive, reflecting the passage of time and the marks of use. Dimensions| Approx. 3cm (L) x 1.6cm (W) x 2.2cm (H) Installation| As pictured: Drill holes at the designated spots, use the included wrench to screw in the built-in double-ended screw, and then attach the hook. Notes| *Each piece is handmade, so there may be slight variations in color, pattern, and size. These differences are what make each item unique. *Brass naturally oxidizes over time, shifting from a golden hue to brown. These are natural marks left by time. Care Instructions| *Exposure to water accelerates oxidation. If you prefer to maintain the original golden color, keep the piece as dry as possible. *To restore its golden luster, you can clean it with baking soda, toothpaste, brass polish, or metal polish. *Applying a thin layer of beeswax after cleaning can slow down the metal's oxidation process. *For the "flame pattern" and "blackened metal" series, regular maintenance with beeswax is recommended.
