Our Finishes

In lighting as in life, the goal is aging gracefully. Most of our finishes are unlacquered or "living," meaning that they may patina over time. While this character can develop as variations in color or tone, it will not affect the structural integrity of the brass or copper, resulting in heirloom quality fixtures that are built to last for generations.

Traditional and well-worn, this brass finish adds a layer of patina to any fixture.
