Does a magnet stick to brass?
An earth magnet will stick to any iron content that anything contains. There are manufacturers of cast brass figurines, from countries such as India, that mix their alloys differently than we do here, and yes a very strong magnet will stick to it. Only slightly, but it will stick to it. An object made with a casting method that can readily be identified by examining the underside as brass, if from India from the 1970s or before, is going to stick to an earth magnet, probably because it has an iron content. Those that say that if a magnet sticks to brass it is brass plated, are categorically wrong. Plating something with brass, is economically absurd. Cladding something with brass is obvious even to the unaware. Brass, like bronze, is an alloy. Copper is mixed with combinations of zinc, and has in some cases been mixed with lead, iron, arsenic, aluminum as well to make brass. You will even find artifacts from Asia that are constructed from something called "5 metal." And yes, you bet the earth magnet will stick to it a little. When this combination was made the word "plate" meant what you served on.
