Frank Allart - Special Finishes

Polished Silver - 92.5% pure sterling silver plate on top of a highly polished brass base.

Butlers Silver - 92.5% pure sterling silver over a highly polished brass surface. Lightly oxidised and carefully hand finished to produce an appearance of 'well cared for' vintage silver, as if looked after for centuries by fastidious Butlers.

Antique Silver - 92.5% pure sterling silver plate over a highly polished brass base. Lightly oxidised and carefully hand burnished to produce an antique appearance.

Rose Gold - 14 Carat pure gold plate on top of a highly polished brass surface, it produces a highly reflective mirror finish.

The finishes above are Living finishes intended to oxidize and patina naturally over time.

Imperial Brass - A sateen polished, solid brass surface given a dark antique patina and then coated with a decorative lacquer, producing a reflective sheen.

Dark Matt Bronze - Dark matt patina over a pure copper plate, finished with a matt decorative lacquer to produce a non-reflective sheen.

The above 2 finishes are not intended for high usage areas.

All finishes will require some care and maintenance - washing with mild, warm soapy water will help remove the day to day build up of dirt and residue and a light application of a good quality beeswax from time to time will help to keep the finish in good condition.

If you have any questions or concerns over which finish will be more suitable to your environment, please get in touch, we will be happy to help.
