Vivienne, it's a luxurious idea, but I find my brass pins, many of which are about 15 years old and used over and over, have not tarnished at all.
Interesting to read that you have pins that have never corroded too. Perhaps the manufacturer will look at the quality of the brass used to make the pins. Good quality is not always the answer. I believe that poor quality pewter used for inlay in bobbins lasts longer than the better quality metal. Good quality pewter corrodes quicker when in contact with wood.
