Vose and Sons - as with other builders of the 1920s, and most high end builders today - used cast iron for the plate.
Piano strings are made of steel wire and the hammers and dampers are made of wood and felt. Piano tuning pins are made of metal. The frame can be made of wood or metal and the bridge can be made of wood or metal.
Most pianos are made of the same combinations of metals. This is an incomplete list: The frame is cast iron, the tuning pegs are steel, as are the bridge pins, the pedals are plated brass.

Brass is commonly used in the construction of the strings of a piano. The strings are made of steel, but the plain strings are also wrapped with coils of brass wire to increase their mass. This helps to modify the tone and create a richer sound in the piano.
Brass : made of zinc in copper Steel: made of carbon in iron
A paint is a solution; only a single phase alloy is considered as a solid solution, so brass is a solution.
Many materials are solid at room temperature: bronze, stainless steel, teflon, brass, uranium etc.
No, steel is generally heavier than brass. Steel is an alloy of iron and carbon with a density greater than that of brass, which is an alloy of copper and zinc.
Brass is a solid solution of copper and zinc. Steel is a solid solution of iron, carbon, and perhaps other materials such as chrome or nickel.BronzeBrassSteelMince MetalLead crystal glassware
