Matt Brushed Brass

Matt brushed brass handles and knobs are a popular choice thanks to their warm colour and low profile finish. This option combines the rich colours of brass with a soft surface that works well in a variety of interior styles. Unlike polished finishes, matt brushed brass is more relaxed which makes it easy to incorporate into your home without it making a big impact on the overall look and feel of the space.

The gold tones instantly add warmth, which works particularly well with painted cabinetry as the handles will stand out without dominating. On lighter cabinetry, matt brushed brass can add character that makes a space feel more homely rather than clinical or industrial. Instead of a shiny surface, this style diffuses light, giving a more muted appearance. In practical terms, the matt finish is better at disguising light marks compared to polished metals.

Maintenance of brushed brass handles generally requires nothing more than a soft cloth, with minimal care the finish should retain its appearance for many years. Even if the handles are constantly touched, brushed brass will age gracefully.
