Unlacquered

Discover the natural appeal of unlacquered brass hardware, a living finish that evolves over time. Left untreated, this finish reacts to the environment, developing a patina unique to each piece. It’s a choice for those who appreciate honest materials and the character that develops with use.

This collection includes door handles, cabinet knobs, drawer pulls, and more — all made from solid brass with no protective coating. The result is hardware that ages visibly, shifting from bright gold to deeper, richer tones as it reacts to touch, air, and moisture. Some prefer the high shine of new brass, while others allow the surface to dull naturally — both are part of the appeal.

Unlacquered brass suits both traditional and modern interiors. Whether you’re restoring a period property or finishing off a contemporary kitchen, these pieces offer a straightforward, tactile option with a lived-in feel. Marks, fingerprints, and changes in tone are all part of its appeal — a finish that doesn’t hide behind polish or lacquer.

Choose from our full range of door knobs, cabinet hardware, pull handles, and locks to bring this honest material into your space.
