No - our Tumbled Aged Brass range is not lacquered and has a raw brass finish. We value the natural ageing process of solid brass and the organic finish created by gradual oxidisation. Laquer also tends to degrade over time and is more prone to flaking or discolouration.

The natural patina on tumbled aged brass will continue to develop over time, which may lead to a darker appearance. Each product will naturally patina differently and at different speeds depending on the installation environment. However, the finish can be restored to a brighter condition if you desire.

To clean aged brass without affecting the tarnish, use mild dish soap and warm water, gently scrub with a soft cloth or sponge, rinse the brass, and dry it thoroughly with a microfibre cloth to prevent water spots.

You can use a quality brass cleaner like Brasso and a clean, soft cloth to keep tumbled aged brass shiny and return it to a brighter condition, without compromising its integrity.

Yes, this is an uncoated solid brass product that is highly durable and can be used outside.

The best way to get colour samples as quickly as possible is to order them through the online shop. If they are out of stock, we can arrange for one of our staff members to contact you ASAP to either send you a sample product or advise you of a lead time for new samples to arrive.

Generally, allow up to 2 business days from the day that you have placed an order online. They are sent by overnight express, and we require a business day to process the order.
