RAW STEEL MATERIAL: Our products are made from steel, a vastly used industrial metal, and the most recycled material in the world. Due to the variations inherent in steel materials, the surface of each piece will likely vary from the picture. The color, specks, spots, grain, and markings on the metal vary from piece to piece, making each one uniquely different.
Our creations are made out of a durable 14 gauge carbon steel. Covered with a thin layer of black oxide, this provides the item's gray tint. While this provides a level of protection against corrosion, a beautiful patina of rust can be brought out by a minimal amount of exposure to humidity. If the rust is unwelcome you may rub grade 3 coarse steel wool over the top to remove any and/or all rust.
Steel is an infinitely recyclable material, meaning it can be recycled over and over again. This greatly minimizes its negative environmental impact, saving energy, reducing landfill waste, and decreasing the mining of iron ore. Please keep this in mind as you consider the nature of this material, and the variability it shows.
