<p>[QUOTE="J Dagger, post: 10622818, member: 10944"]It’s hard to tell. I think it’s bronze of brass. If iron it would likely be a ball of rust. All the other iron I pulled was rusty and almost always is. I get the Japanese look. I wouldn’t be surprised if it was aesthetic movement era. Rich orange is just a “quality” level of gilding. I believe it just meant it had a nice deep gold appearance. Used in UK and US. Could be more to it but not that I know.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
