10 Ways to Use Brass and Copper in Your Home

• During the times of our forefathers, metals like
  brass and copper were commonly used in making
  different household items. They were strong and
  used to last more than one lifetime. But with the
  advancement of technology, we have started
  avoiding metals and have brought in synthetic
  materials like plastic and vinyl that are cheap
  and easy to mold.
• Yet there are still certain ways in which rich
  metals like brass and copper can be included
  within the decor of our post-modern homes without
  compromising a bit on the urbanite and elegant
  style of our interiors.
