As you can see in the picture, they are casted in brass, in two pieces, and riveted and soldered with silver solder.
They aren't sheet metal at all... But I can't see what's the problem with sheet metal anyway...
I've made it in two pieces to keep the price low, they aren't archaeological reproductions at all.
I have "jumped in" to reproduce this pieces because I think there's both physical and "logical" evidence of its use, but this is, of course, my opinion only. Maybe next time I will have to ask for permision from the "experts" before making anything :twisted:
