Brass hardware finishes explained: BPL, SCP, antique and more
Our catalogue lists a finish code next to every product. Here is what they mean in practice.
BPL, Brass Polished Lacquered
Bright polished brass sealed with clear lacquer. The classic look and our most common finish.
CP and SCP, chrome and satin chrome
Chrome plating over brass gives a cool modern tone. Satin chrome is brushed and hides marks.
Antique brass and Florentine bronze
Darkened finishes that look aged from day one, ideal for heritage projects.
PC and PCT, powder coated
Used on our iron range: a tough black coating, smooth or textured.
