Vintage Brass Centrepiece Bowl

Is the brass bowl safe for direct contact with water?

Brass bowls are generally decorative and prolonged exposure to water can cause tarnishing; it's best to use a liner if water is involved.

Does the bowl have an anti-slip base?

Typically, brass decor bowls do not have an anti-slip base, so placing a felt pad underneath can help protect surfaces and improve stability.

What is the best way to polish a brass centerpiece without damaging it?

Use a soft cloth and a gentle, non-abrasive brass polish. Always follow the direction of the metal’s grain to maintain its patina and shine.

Can this be used to hold real fruit or edibles?

While it can hold fruits temporarily for decorative purposes, direct food contact is not recommended unless a food-safe liner is used.

Is the item heavy enough to stay stable on a dining table?

Brass centerpieces are usually moderately heavy, ensuring stability even when placed on busy or frequently used surfaces like dining tables.

What size table or space is suitable for placing such a centerpiece?

This type of bowl works best on medium to large tables where it won't overcrowd the setting and can serve as an eye-catching focal point.

Is it suitable for formal settings like weddings or upscale events?

Absolutely! Brass centerpieces add a classic, luxurious feel to weddings, formal dinners, and other elegant gatherings.
