Brass

Solid brass sample sealed with lacquer. Our lacquered brass is a beautiful, low-maintenance finish compared to raw or waxed brass. Our lacquer coating will slow but not completely stop the natural aging process of brass. Our fixtures will slowly darken and age over many years or decades. We encourage clients to order finish samples as color representation may vary from screen to screen. Minor imperfections in fixture finishes are inherent in our handcrafted production, giving each light vitality and authenticity. Care & Maintenance Dust regularly with a soft, dry cloth. Quickly wipe away any splatters or sprays, especially in bathroom and kitchen environments, using a soft, damp cloth and then dry with a soft cloth. Never use brass polish or harsh chemicals on lacquered fixtures. Avoid contact with ammonia, bleach, acidic, or abrasive cleaners, which will reduce the lifespan and effectiveness of the lacquer coating and accelerate oxidation. Quickly blot away water from metal surfaces to prevent water spots and mineral deposits. Over time, lacquer can wear off due to regular use, the environment, or exposure to oils or chemicals. Our lacquer is not marine grade and may not hold up as well in salty, coastal locations or unvented, moist rooms.
