Choices - Tin plated Brass or Brass?

When people are working on their caskets, one of the decisions they have to make is what color hardware to use on their casket.  This decision cascades through and impacts what color of woven metal tape is used and the metal color stamping on the papers that are inside the casket.

What is hard is to visualize the choice.  So I have taken two pictures to show the difference between  the voice of tin coated brass (silver colored), which was the traditional choice, and brass (gold colored).

    Interesting! Who would have thought the hardware would have such an impact!

    While both are awesome, I really like the silver layout. It seems to let the fabric scene stand on it's own - not adding to it or taking away from it. So beautiful!
