Over time, this exposed metal will oxidize and develop a rich patina; depending on your environment, it may even take on a greenish hue (verdigris). Each pair will age uniquely, reflecting the specific way it has been used.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \"Raw\" version, which features untreated brass side plates, will also develop a patina through regular use.
