Yoshinori Nagashima Brass Oval Tray

A forged brass oval tray by metal artist Yoshinori Nagashima, treated with an aging process that brings out the warm, antiqued patina brass would otherwise take years to develop. Brass continues to shift in tone over time with use and air exposure, and contact with acidic foods may cause some lightening in color, both part of how the material is meant to live and change. The piece is safe for everyday use; to preserve the finish, avoid leaving it wet for long periods or cleaning it with a harsh sponge or cleanser.

Note: each piece is hand-forged, so the texture and surface marks left from hammering are part of the piece, not a flaw.
