Antique brass
Surface finish
-
Look
Vintage / patina
Artificially aged surface with uneven tone and visible patina. Creates the impression of a historical or hand-crafted piece. Each part looks slightly different — by design, not by defect.
-
Abrasion resistance
Low
Thin decorative coating that gradually wears through with regular wear and friction. Wear shows fairly quickly at points where buckle or snap contacts the strap, ring or fur.
-
Corrosion protection
Basic
Provides a temporary barrier against moisture. Works well in dry environments, but protection weakens over time with regular contact with water or sweat.
-
Nickel
No
The finish contains no nickel in any layer. A safe choice for allergy sufferers and for products intended for direct contact with sensitive skin.
| Damp conditions | Occasional rain | Tolerates contact with water — rain, wet grass, damp hands. With regular soaking the finish ages faster and loses appearance. Better to dry after wetting. |
|---|---|---|
| Aging | Intentional patina | Surface is designed to change over time. Ageing deepens the character of the finish — the product looks different after a year than when new, and that is intentional, not a defect. Each piece ages slightly differently. |
| Process | Chemical | Surface is changed by chemical reaction — patination, oxidation or staining. Results in a natural, often uneven appearance that mimics natural ageing of the material. |
How antique brass is made
Hardware is plated with brass and then chemically darkened; the recesses stay dark while the edges lighten. Every piece turns out slightly different – on purpose.
What it gives the product
A vintage look of aged metal that suits natural leather and hand-stitched goods.
When to choose it and when not to
Rustic collars, belts and bags. The layer is thin and the protection basic – for products in permanent damp, choose stainless steel or solid brass instead.
How it ages
The patina deepens with use – the product looks different after a year than it did new, and that's the whole point of this finish. At contact points the layer can wear through over time.
What it pairs with
Brown and cognac leather, unbleached webbing, antique copper and antique silver on companion products.
