does the brass peel off?

I don't use this phone for calls. It serves as décor. The hook unit for the handset appears too flimsy for everyday use. I would guess that the brass would not peel off.

Had the orginal phone for several years and had no problems with any brass peeling. Did not clean with anything except mild soap and water.

No, it hasn't come off. However, I've had to retire the phone as it was broken during some furniture moving. Drat. But I was really very well-pleased with it's appearance. It has a nice heft to it.

Not as of yet. The product is in a room that is not used much anymore. The product looks, today, the way it looked on day one. Hope it works out for you.

Mine hasn't.What some people do when they want preserve they paint a clear coat of fingernail hardener. It's clear so it doesn't change the color, yet it provides a plastic coating.

I didn't have a problem with the brass peeling off. The problem I had was the sound quality.The volume was not loud enough.

It does come off, you just really have to pry. Try using a paper clip to loosten it. Took me a while the first time.

Brass. I've had mine nine years, not a single problem. Left outside three seasons a year.

Yes! I have a dishwater or sandy shade of blonde and it helps with the brass. :)

Yes, it comes off easily. I love it. Use it under big, big pots to keep them from burning.

NO. At least, one product reviewer states the package states: "Note: the brass in this product contains lead.""wash hands after handling."

Doesn't state it but highly unlikely given it is solid brass. Just email them. I'm sure you will get a quick answer.Their service guy is Joshua Jantz <joshua@christfocus.com>

All brass has lead in it. The exposure area is minimal though, so it shouldn't be too much of a problem.

Yes, it does come off easily. I store mine separately as I mostly use this as a shoot through.

No. When I peeled mine off, they came off without leaving anything behind on the keys.

I personally sonic clean and, after drying, tumble my brass. This is just a matter of personal preference. Looks like almost new when finished.

I don't have any brass in contact with it.hard to imagine that it would, I spent close to 17 yrs. W/NYS Canals I wouldn't hesitate to try set a timer for a couple weeks then check it. Pete

Although I have never done it, it looks like it does come off. I just gave it a twist and it started to unscrew from the base.

Have not used on brass but have used on silver, gold, stainless steel and has worked well but you do need to soak jewelry for a good clean.

I gave it as a gift, so not 100% sure, but I believed it clicked on. There was no issue of it coming off.Look, this is a great product with ONLY ONE major issue: if dropped, it will shatter. It will not stay intact if dropped, even if you lacquer it. Otherwise, it's beautiful & very impressive!

No, they don´t come off or at least in the one we bought. BTW, it no longer works. It only lasted a couple of weeks. Get something better.

I have not removed mine, however it is vinyl so its seems fairly easy to remove without damaging the surface its placed on.
