MATERIAL & CARE GUIDE
All items are pressed out of a burning-hot solid piece of brass for durability and highest quality and are then CNC-machine made and carefully sanded by hand. It takes almost 7 minutes to craft one base on a CNC-machine. We can group our materials in two types of surface treatments:
LIVING (patina)
FINISHES: Brass / Polished Brass / Burnished Brass Living
A living finish will change over time adding character to the product. The more you touch the product the faster the process will be. The brass will either be brushed by hand or pre-polished.
All our finishes are unlacquered as we prefer when they age with grace and develop their distinct
character.
PLATED (long-lasting)
FINISHES: Nickel / Polished Nickel / Burnished Brass / Nearly Black / Gunmetal
The colored items are either subsequently plated or PVD treated in our unique material options with a thin layer that withstands more than 240 hours of salt fog testing.
Plated finishes will not change as much as living finishes.
