Guys many sincere thanks for all your help and advice.
Let's see how it looks once I've cleaned it (fingers and toes crossed it arrives safe and sound from the US). Depending on how well it shaves and how it turns out, I may or may not plate it as I'm starting to appreciate the beauty of brass like how it manages to change it's appearance from a dark patina to shiny gold.
I really like the thought of picking up this gem 5 years later after it's been in a box and watching it shine as I apply a bit of brasso and make it shave ready again.
