That patina we use to blacken white brass can create a range of colors and effects. Its potency can be influenced by temperature. Warm patina blackens the metal more quickly and with greater uniformity. 

In this batch, we were experimenting with the impact of cold patina and a long bath. We were able to achieve one darker edge, which took on earthy tones with the remainder of the component taking on a night-sky-like gradient, hence the name of this Special Edition of square buttons.
