are the gears brass like shown or just silver metal color?

The gears are solid brass, this is a really lovely pan, works perfectly and cleans up great.

The gears on ours are actual brass. Works great and we don't have to worry about teeth breaking off the gears, like on a previous piper we had.

Bronze. Not an oil rubbed bronze, which would be a dark brown. But not antique brass, and nothing in the silver or nickel family. They look good. Not too garish.

The one i odered was metal and very nicely done. It was brushed brass and if you have had plates like these made they are thin metal. The plate was packaged very nicely and was pefect and easy to mount with the attached adhesive.

Actually, the knob is red. I know that it looks rather pinkish in the photo, but it is just the photo. The actual color is a solid "manly" red, like a fire engine red.

They have different colors. Mine is silver and looks metallic although it's plastic. Others are blue and red.

I believe they're solid brass, little or no coating. I'd have to check though, and they're currently in storage with a lot of my othwr gun stuff. Sorry I couldn't be a bit more helpful.

They are actually metallic and silver looking. The rest of the pole is more of a dark grey.

I would recommend the set, purchased them quite a while now and still working perfectly they are not chrome as pictured but brass instead.

The one I got was brass in color. The chain broke already by the way. I'm not sure if it was due to it being cheap or because my daughter may have hit it on a shopping cart at costco yesterday. One of the links just broke when she bent over to grab something out of the cart. It can be fixed. I just wanted to add that in to let people know that the material isnt exactly of the highest quality. I dont regret buying it, for the price, and she is really happy with her necklace :)

Looks more like a dull chrome yeah silver color but anything like a brushed or polished nickel. I think it's made of a zinc Alloy. But the of work well and look good!!!

It's a medium gray metal matte color. We have had several positive comments on them and we are very pleased with the look and quality. Definitely a machine age look at a good price.

The color is gun metal. More of a dark silvery color, but much lighter than a wrought-iron not bronze.

The gears are enclosed in a plastic sleeve. I'd guess plastic, but I cannot tell. Do NOT purchase this product until you've read my earlier comments on the opening/closing door not closing!

Brass. After wearing this for 3 months the color of the chain has faded to silver though. The medallion itself is still brass painted at least though

They are more silver. They go beautifully with my stainless steel appliances!

The 3 I purchased were all silver colored (look like stainless, but are probably plated - or maybe brushed aluminum). Even on the page that showed both black and silver, I also found no place to pick a color. But the silver is attractive, so I did not complain.
