Acid Washed Brass by Hepburn Hardware

Updated: Aug 16, 2022



Their acid washed brass hardware has been designed to patina and evolve over time. These solid brass pieces have been given an acid wash treatment so they will beautifully age but at a much slower rate to raw brass hardware.


The areas of these pieces that are touched will stay lighter, whilst the areas that aren’t will become darker. This is due to oxidising with the natural atmosphere over the years of exposure. Due to this kind of treatment, these pieces can be used in exterior as well as salty areas, which will only further deepen the antique brass look.

At Hepburn Hardware they design handles, hooks and knobs from their base in Currumbin (Queensland, Australia) that reflect our country's relaxed lifestyle. Hepburn Hardware aims to create hardware for kitchens, bathrooms and wardrobes that is unique but also understated and classic. Hepburn Hardware is suitable for residential, commercial properties, and high traffic hotels.


At Architectural Design Hardware we are honoured to offer the Hepburn Hardware range of door hardware.
