Never underestimate the power of some Brasso polish on copper.
It IS important to remember though that heat and basic use will tarnish most pots like this. A little bit of tarnish or discoloration is perfectly normal, full-on rust or mineral deposits? Not so much.
I'm blessed enough that my COVID symptoms are so far mild enough that I can clean/polish stuff while seated but I think I'll be unable to be in the workshop for a hot minute.
Mask up, wash your hands, and stay safe.
