Brass colors range from deep red (high copper) to bright gold (standard mix) and silvery-white (high zinc/nickel). Colors are controlled by adjusting the copper-zinc ratio, and adding elements to change hue, strength and corrosion resistance.
Red Brass (Reddish-Gold): Contains roughly 85% or more copper and less than 15% zinc.
Yellow Brass (Golden-Yellow): Contains approximately 60-70% copper and 30-40% zinc.
White Brass (Silvery-White): Contains higher amounts of zinc or added nickel.
Antique Brass (Dark Brown/Black): Achieved through chemical treatment (patination) or natural aging.
