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.

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.

Image presenting the back of the coaster where the microstructure of the substrate was identified. The composition of the brass (about 35% Zn) indicates that the expected structure is alpha plus beta. The front of the coaster presents two grooves which surface morphology was analyzed by scanning electron microscopy.
