brass grows a very nice patina in weathering exposure.  You have to have 
salts and build up of sludge to make brass corrode, and then you can't even 
tell that it corroded because the normal mode is dealloying.  
This fishing reel is 130 years old - where it was corroding is where 
mildewed silk line was rotting on it.

Sögreni stuff always looks to me to exist at the point where visual design 
outruns common sense.  It's always pretty, but the prettiness has reduced the 
functionality.

Thanks, these are exceedingly cool in form and function.   Simply could not 
resist ordering one.

The desired word here is 'tarnish'.   In this case, dealing with brass, it 
is an oxidation process.   As Steve pointed out, rusting is the oxidation 
of iron;  tarnishing is the oxidation of copper or brass.  (Though to be 
precise, a tarnish can form with other than 'oxidation'; if instead of 
oxygen, it was sulfur dioxide, or for silver, hydrogen sulfide... well, 
there's the whole reducing environment versus oxidizing environment... say, 
if you have available iron in an an oxidizing environment, yes, you can 
have hematite or magnetite forming (Fe2O3 or Fe3O4), but if it's a reducing 
environment, you end up with pyrites (FeS2, etc.) instead.  

One difference:  a tarnish is happening on the surface, and can form a 
'protective' layer for the underlying metal.   A rust, like a normal 'red' 
rust, can continue to see ongoing oxidation of iron.  (However, it is 
possible to get a 'black rust' to act as a tarnish, and keep the underlying 
iron from rusting. )
