About Brass Metal & How to clean Brass Jewelry with a Homemade Solution

Brass Metal is an alloy of copper and zinc, an excellent material for Body Jewelry.  It has been used from remote antiquity in many populations and tribes for decorate body and face.

Brass jewelry does not rust with regular use, as it is corrosion-resistant. However, depending on the amount of copper used, it may turn green after some time.  Brass oxidation will also depend on your sweat, exposure to water or salty environments.

Do not use brass jewelry for excessively long times without cleaning them; we recommend to remove them at night for better piercing care.
