I didn't convey myself clearly as to what I wanted to say. The chimney is copper, but it is painted, I don't know what kind of paint, it's golssy though. By saying fake, I ment that this is mounted on the actually working brick chimney.

If a latex "copper" paint was used over, say brick, Goof Off can remove the paint without damaging the brick. If oil-based "copper" was used, you would use paint remover/mineral spirits.
As a professional, I know I could give you a firm answer, but I need to know both the type of "copper paint" and the underlying surface material. Best I can do with further details!
