Antique Brass Order Code for this Finish: AB   //   Standard Metal Finish in Domestic Tapware Ranges   //   Non Tarnishing Finish Our Antique Brass is a 22 carat gold plate premium metal finish. It is electroplated on to brass & copper (like chrome) and has the appearance of freshly polished brass.

It does not look oxidised or tarnished in any way – it looks brand new.

The plated surface is made up of a carefully balanced formula of gold, nickel and other inert metals. Being chemically inert, it does not tarnish (this is, discolour in the presence of air and moisture).

Antique Brass Finish Examples
I like this finish so how do I select items in this finish?
The vast majority of our products & accessories can be produced in any of the metal finishes presented in the Metal Finishes Guide.

The next step is to choose a handle style, the best place to choose this is the Handle Style Guide.

If you have already have chosen a handle style, use the top menu to go to the preferred Domestic or Commercial Tapware range.

From there, selecting a metal finish happens on the individual product page. By default most products will load up with Chrome Plate (CP) finish pricing.

Polished Brass Order Code for this Finish: PB   //   Bespoke Metal Finish in All Ranges   //   Maturing Finish aka High Polish

Brass is the basic material of our tapware, and in the course of manufacture the exterior parts are polished to a high lustre – hence Polished Brass.

Polished Brass quickly and easily reacts to air and moisture and this creates tarnishing, this can be left for a desired aging effect or can be removed by regular repolishing by the end user.

For brass polished to a low lustre see our Polish to Plate finish.

Raw Brass Order Code for this Finish: RB   //   Bespoke Metal Finish in All Ranges   //   Maturing Finish This is essentially the original brass as it is manufactured providing a very industrial look.

It will show weld marks and as different forms of brass are being used, the colour will differ throughout. Tubular pieces can have darker sections where it has been annealed to allow for bending. This finish is intended to provide a very rough look. The cleaner looking versions of this finish are Lea Wheeled Brass & Polish to Plate.

This finish is popular with heritage restorations and outdoor showers.

Please view the photo examples below to see some of the colour variations of this finish. We also recommend viewing the Architect & Designer Showcase gallery for further photos of this finish.

With this finish we highly recommend selecting the engraved button upgrade for tap handles.

Polish to Plate Order Code for this Finish: PP   //   Bespoke Metal Finish in All Ranges   //   Maturing Finish Polish to Plate is the same as Raw Brass except that the brass has been polished ready for a plating process, allowing for a consistent patinaed colour to be achieved once the material has matured.

This finish is popular with heritage restorations, Hamptons style looks and outdoor showers.

When freshly polished you will see the some variation between the brass alloys required for manufacture, this is normal and the differences between the alloys will become less apparent as the brass matures with the moisture in the air & water.

For brass polished to a high lustre see our Polished Brass finish & for the closest non-tarnishing finish to Polish to Plate, please refer to our Dull Antique Brass finish.

Lea Wheeled Brass Order Code for this Finish: LW   //   Bespoke Metal Finish in All Ranges   //   Maturing Finish This finish is the similar to Polish to Plate (PP) except that the brass undergoes a different polishing method which leaves a less reflective surface courtesy of the soft brush marks on the brass. This finish achieves a consistent rough colour and has a beautiful texture. It is a cleaner finish than Raw Brass (RB) but provides a slightly less reflective initial look when compared to Polish to Plate.

This finish is suitable for heritage restorations with a contemporary twist, along with contemporary spaces where the brassware is intended to be a feature. It is also a suitable finish for use outdoors.

When freshly polished you will see the some variation between the brass alloys required for manufacture, this is normal and the differences between the alloys will become less apparent as the brass matures with the moisture in the air & water.
