Projection:

Care:
To preserve the beauty and integrity of your solid brass hardware, dust regularly with a soft, lint-free or microfiber cloth. When needed, clean gently with a slightly damp microfiber cloth, then dry thoroughly. This product features an unlacquered Burnished Brass finish intentionally left unsealed, allowing the brass to age naturally and develop a distinctive patina through exposure to air, moisture, and touch. The artisan-applied finish is created through a hand-rubbed patina and barreling process. Subtle dimpling, spotting, and variations in color, texture, and surface detail are intentional characteristics of the finish. Burnished Brass will continue to develop a natural patina over time. Do not use brass cleaner, metal polish, abrasive materials, soap, harsh chemicals, or any other cleaning product, as these may damage the finish. Due to the nature of our hand-finishing process, products may have lot-to-lot variations in color and/or finish.
