Solid brass spiral staircase with blackwood base

The staircase is 8 and 1/2 inches high and has 36 5 mm thick steps 1 and 1/8 diameter. The first 18 steps spiraling from center out and back to center then the top 18 center to center in the opposite direction.
Turned from a solid piece of brass over 55 hours just turning time never mind the deburring, fine sanding and polishing.
Comments welcome
Regards from Jeff.

Thanks Charlie and Scott.
No its only highly polished but natural brass. Every so often I soak it in liquid brasso wipe off and buff up. Its the photo as to see it here is more brass yellow.
Best from Jeff.
