Brass possesses a unique beauty and is admired for its undeniable quality. Nevertheless, brass is subject to some natural discolouration over time when exposed to air as everyone's local climate is different. Therefore, everyone will experience different effects on their brass products.
Our brass products are coated with high-quality lacquer to act as a protective barrier and provide the longest possible life to their finish. However, nothing is absolute and even these lacquers have limitations, which means they may wear with varying amounts of use and changing environmental conditions. Brass is known to last for a long time, but its lacquered surface is not guaranteed to be an infinite protector.
Whilst some brassware is made to age and patina over time, our range is manufactured to retain its original finish. To maintain the beauty and quality of your brassware for years to come, proper care and maintenance should be routinely carried out.
To avoid residue build-up which may cause discolouration of the original finish, clean or brush with warm, soapy water then dry with a microfiber cloth to remove any remaining soap, marks or fingerprints.
It is recommended that this be done regularly and incorporated into the general cleaning routine of your space.
The use of acid or alkali cleaners, alcohol, abrasive solutions or scouring pads/creams may affect the thickness and effectiveness of protective coatings such as lacquers, plating and powder coating.
Powder-coated finishes should be cleaned only with a damp cloth as they may chip with rough handling, and therefore caution should be taken during maintenance and use.
