Brass naturally darkens a little after a while, but it can easily be restored to its shine. Vinegar or lemon juice will do a good job. A hot bath with rhubarb leaves or apple peel even works wonders. Normal toothpaste is also ideal for polishing the surface. Afterwards, the surface can simply be polished with a soft cloth.
This medieval brass spoon is a historical prop that is produced in small numbers and therefore does not have food certification. We are therefore obliged to give the following notice: Prop - not certified for food contact.
