About Burnished Brass
From The Anvil's Burnished Brass products are manufactured from solid brass. They then undergo an accelerated ageing process to create a dark patina before being placed into barrelling machines to create the burnished finish. Each Burnished Brass product has a unique finish which is protected by a high-quality, clear matt lacquer.
When paired with dark shades like brown, grey, and black, this finish looks classic and rich. However, pairing this finish which lighter colours such as white, sage green, and pale blue is a great way to emphasise its unique texture.
Caring for Burnished Brass
We advise against using harsh chemicals or cleaning products on Burnished Brass as they may affect the lacquer. Burnished Brass products should be cleaned regularly with a soft cloth and wiped over with a wax-based furniture polish like our Maintenance Wax (33002).
Regular oiling of all moving parts using our ‘3-in-1 Oil’ (92337) is beneficial to the longevity of your products. This process is also highly recommended during initial installation. An oily cloth can also be used to wipe over the product from time to time to aid protection against exterior or environmental elements.
