Brass
Types of brass finishes. Where tradition meets contemporary design
There is a metal that never ceases to surprise. Warm, alive, capable of changing character depending on how it is treated: brass has always been the preferred material of those who design spaces with a precise vision. At Metalbril, brass finishing is a craft and controlled process, in which every finish is born from a conscious choice of technique, texture and light.
Brass, the distinctive metal for luxury furnishings and interior design
Metalbril works alongside interior designers and architects in the creation of brass pieces for luxury furnishings: cladding, handles, frames, decorative elements and bespoke accessories. Every brass furniture treatment is born from a direct dialogue with the project, with the possibility of developing customised finishes and sample prototypes before production.
Brass burnishing. The charm of time that leaves its mark
Among all treatments, burnishing, also known as oxidation, is the one that tells the most. Burnished brass carries with it a chromatic depth that is hard to replicate: dark tones, surfaces that seem to have lived, an elegance that does not shout but imposes itself. The oxidised brass finish lends itself to environments seeking character, where the metallic detail becomes a silent protagonist. In the brushed burnished brass variant, the surface gains a directional and soft-to-the-touch texture, which dampens reflections and adds materiality. It is the choice of those who want warmth without excess, refinement without ostentation.
Painting brass. Protection and design without compromise
Brass painting is not just a matter of durability. It is also a way to fix a tone, enhance an effect, protect a surface destined to live in luxury environments without losing its identity over time. Our brass painting treatments guarantee a uniform and resistant finish, compatible with the most demanding requirements of contract and bespoke furnishings.
Polishing and high-quality finishes. Light as a design tool
A mirror-polished surface transforms brass into an architectural element. It reflects the environment, multiplies the light, dialogues with the surrounding materials. Metalbril’s polished finishes are produced through progressive manual processes, to achieve a result that respects the nature of the metal and meets the project’s specifications. Alongside polishing, we offer a repertoire of high-quality finishes: oxidations, antiquing, brushing, designed for those who approach surfaces with the same care they put into choosing a fabric or a stone.
