Brass entry set discoloration

Hi...I have a double door entry and the handles were antique brass. Now, the one that we use frequently is shiny brass...how can I restore it to Antique or how can I strip the other one so they match. Thank you so much.

Bernice,
I think your best bet would be to use a brass polish on the dark handle since it would be fairly difficult to darken the one that has become polished.
Good luck.
