This brushed brass has a hand applied antique effect treatment which is then finished with beeswax. To achieve this, the craftsmen apply a chemical treatment which adds a colourant. This process is undertaken several times to achieve the required depth of colour. The piece is hand polished and worked back to the metal to achieve an aged antique look, which is then sealed with wax.
This product will age to a natural patina, darkening and dulling to develop its own individual character.
Where can it be used
We recommend that this finish is used in internal areas, avoiding highly chlorinated environments such as swimming pool areas. This finish can be used in sheltered external areas, although it will patinate faster, and will need regular maintenance.
Maintenance
Wipe any fingerprints off with a dry, soft cloth, then apply a layer of wax evenly over the handle. For further details, visit our Care and maintenance page.
