About Our Unlacquered Brass Hardware
Unlacquered brass hardware carries a warm, golden glow that shifts and deepens with age, making it a living finish that continues to evolve rather than one that stays fixed. It's a natural fit for those who want their bath hardware to gain character over time, developing a richer patina the more it's touched and used. Because unlacquered brass has no protective coating, it will show water spots, fingerprints, and tarnishing more readily than lacquered finishes—something many homeowners welcome as part of its natural charm. If you'd rather preserve its original brightness, periodic polishing with a brass cleaner can slow the aging process, though the finish will still soften and change subtly with time.
