Yeah. Would imagine brass to be a little less. I'd strip the fire down so you just have the brass parts aswell.

i wouldn't say old fashion. just traditional. that'd work well in a 1930's household or some asians.

Surround is quite thin in fact it might be plated?
The 2 bottom bits are quite thick and chunky...

how is 'asian' racist? it's a word used to describe people from that part of the world.
that's just like me calling someone a racist for saying i'm british
