Croft Finishes
Add that perfect finishing touch to your Croft project with an extensive choice of finishes & patinas. Croft finishes have been individually developed by skilled craftsmen, with many still being expertly hand applied.
Antique Brass (AB)
A final hand-finishing step creates a
mellowed aged patina, emulating an aged
finish that comes with long use. A hand
applied living finish, resulting in every item
being unique.

Uniquely aged by hand to give the
appearance of a timeworn product, with
warm mellow tones. Being a hand produced
living finish, each product has individual
character.
Antique Nickel (AN)
A blend of nickel and hand applied patina
create a rich aged effect. Finished with
a protective lacquer.
Autumun Bronze (AUT)
Warm and textured in appearance,
a living finish with an array of brown and
red undertones.

Solid brass is plated in highly polished
chrome for a stunning mirror smooth
finish, often suited to more contemporary
environments.
