Crevice Corrosion in a Subsea System — Aspect Before Analysis

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.
