Living
Our living finishes are all unlacquered. This allows the finish to naturally oxidise over time to reveal a beautiful, darker aged patina. This change in finish adds to the charm of the product and allows for natural variation. We recommend the occasional use of a soft cloth and the use of a quality metal polish will help preserve the finish if highly polished. Not to be used on satin or antique/bronze finishes as this will accelerate wear.
