Clean gently: Use mild soap and warm water with a soft, non-abrasive cloth. Wipe carefully to remove dust and residue.
Dry thoroughly: This is the most important step. Always wipe the hardware completely dry after cleaning or use. Minerals naturally present in water can leave deposits that, over time, will etch or scar the surface of the finish.
Avoid harsh products: Do not use strong solvents, metal polishes, scouring pads, steel wool, or cleaners containing bleach, acid, or ammonia. These can permanently damage protective coatings or alter the finish.
Regular care ensures longevity: Especially in bathrooms, kitchens, and coastal environments, frequent drying and gentle cleaning will preserve the finish’s original beauty for years to come.
Polished Nickel is a living finish, admired for the soft warmth and timeless elegance it brings to any space. Over time, it naturally develops a gentle patina, adding character and depth to its appearance.
This finish requires simple yet regular care. After each use, wipe it dry with a soft, lint-free cloth to prevent water spots, as minerals in water can leave deposits that may dull the surface. If spots appear, clean gently with mild soap and warm water, then dry thoroughly. To restore the natural sheen, you may occasionally use a light, non-abrasive brass polish available at most home improvement stores.
Unlacquered Polished Brass is a living finish that develops a rich patina and a distinctive character reminiscent of antique brass. Because it is bare, untreated brass, it reacts naturally with air and touch, gradually deepening in tone to create a beautifully aged appearance.
To maintain its beauty, clean gently with mild soap and water, then dry thoroughly with a soft cloth. You may occasionally use a high-quality brass polish (such as Brasso) to restore brightness or to slow the natural patina development—depending on your desired look.
Polish brass is also offered with a lacquer which seals the polish and the brightness will stay much longer. It will not tarnish easily and will stay as is for much longer.
Lacquered Polished Brass is sealed with a clear protective lacquer that preserves the brilliant, mirror-like shine of polished brass. The lacquer acts as a barrier against air, moisture, and natural oxidation, ensuring the finish retains its brightness and resists tarnishing for a much longer time. To maintain its luster, simply clean with mild soap and water, then dry thoroughly with a soft cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or metal polishes such as Brasso, as they can damage the lacquer and compromise the finish. With proper care, the surface will maintain its radiant appearance for years—no polishing required.
Bright Chrome is a hard, durable finish known for its brilliant, mirror-like appearance and modern appeal. To maintain its clarity and shine, clean with mild soap and water, then dry immediately with a soft, lint-free cloth to prevent water spots.
Although chrome is highly resilient, it’s best to avoid commercial or abrasive cleaners, as they may dull the surface or leave micro-scratches over time. Regular gentle cleaning is all that’s needed to preserve its crisp, polished look.
These finishes are hand-buffed to create a soft sheen, reducing surface gleam and giving the metal a refined satin texture. The subtle brush strokes that define these finishes can be more susceptible to stains or marks from chemicals and acids, as fine grooves may trap residues.
For routine care, clean with warm water and mild soap, then dry immediately with a soft, lint-free cloth. If you notice uneven stains or marks over time, the finish can be refreshed using a dry polishing cloth, following the direction of the brush strokes to maintain a uniform appearance.
These finishes are deeply personal and expressive, designed to complement the overall design language of a home—from cabinetry style and color palette to fixtures and architectural details. Each piece is handcrafted and individually finished, resulting in subtle variations that are inherent and intentional, giving every product its own distinctive character.
Because these are artisan-applied finishes, slight variations may occur from batch to batch. Areas that are touched frequently will lighten and develop a gentle sheen over time as the metal interacts with natural oils from the skin—a hallmark of authentic, handcrafted quality.
For routine care, wipe the surface gently with a soft cloth after each use to remove moisture or fingerprints. To maintain and protect the finish, apply a thin layer of Renaissance Wax periodically. Avoid abrasive cleaners or chemical polishes, as they can disturb the natural patina and depth that make these finishes so unique.
For Silicon Bronze Light, this finish is a raw, as-cast surface with no artificial patina applied. Each piece is cleaned, tumbled, and sealed with wax before shipping to preserve the natural tone of the metal. Over time, the surface will naturally deepen in color and develop a warm patina that enhances its character. If you wish to restore its original brightness, clean gently with a deoxidizing copper cleaner such as Wright’s Copper Cream, then apply a few coats of clear wax to protect the surface and maintain its glow.
For Silicon Bronze Dark and White Bronze, these finishes are lacquered to preserve their tone and prevent natural patination. Routine care will help the hardware age gracefully—simply clean occasionally with mild soap and water, and wipe gently with a soft, non-abrasive cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials, as they can damage the lacquer and alter the natural tone and texture of the bronze.
