The coasters present a handmake look. The grooves are of different sizes and the octogonal shape is irregular. The pieces presented a weight that suggested that the bright finish is a metallic coating, later identified by EDS analysis as silver coating, typical of a decorative plating.

Aspect of the CuZn platesheet where it is corroded (cooling medium side). The (hot) air cooler uses treated seawater as the cooling medium and the corroded regions are associated to the regions in the heat exchanger of higher temperatures, and the leakage occurred in regions of contact of the platesheet to cooper alloy tubes.

Piece that was analysed by non destructive tests. Octogonal shape. Two irregular grooves. The coaster was manufactured in a cooper alloy substrate and a metallic coating. The analysis to reveal the substrate microstructure was conducted on the back of the part, in a non destructive preparation, that included light grinding, polishing and etching.
