OLD BRASS -OR IS IT?

Found this on an awesome antiques informational website. Tons of articles to help you in your search for collectables and antiques!

OLD BRASS -OR IS IT?
by Fred Taylor
   When you read the catalog for an auction that will be presenting some genuine antique furniture, it's always interesting to read the descriptions. Some of the most alluring will describe a piece of furniture as having "original finish" or "original brasses". That's a real selling point when looking at a chest of drawers that may be 200 years old and think that those brass pulls have been there undisturbed for that whole time. Can that be?
