Odd Lamps, Candlesticks, Et Cetera

BRASS: An alloy of copper and zinc. Harder than copper, it is ductile and can be hammered into thin leaves. Brass of ancient times was of copper and tin.

WOOD: A hard, tough substance that forms the trunks of trees, and that has been used for thousands of years as a fuel and as a material to build things.

WROUGHT IRON: Iron was wrought - that is hammered into shape when hot by blacksmiths.

COPPER:The brownisch-red metal was known to prehistoric people and was probably the first metal of which useful articles were fabricated.( Like Odd Lamps). The metal was known to American Indians, and American ores were found by the early European explorers.
