SENTIENT Metal Finishes & Options

Brushed Brass

Brass is a favorite for SENTIENT’s customers. Whether it is for a high end restaurant or a chic New York apartment the timelessness of brushed brass is an obvious choice. If it’s to compliment a stunning American black walnut live edge table or for subtle hardware, handles or other accents to a console or dresser we have found time and again that brushed brass is the perfect material.

Blackened Steel

Blackening is fast oxidizing patina added to penetrate the steel. It creates a natural black color that shows depth and relates to the inherent character and strength of the cold rolled steel used in the fabrication of our Frame, Wishbone and other steel legs, that pair perfectly with our live edge dining table models.

Polished Brass

Brass is typically chosen in either the timeless contemporary brushed brass finish or the elegant strong statement that is polished brass. At SENTIENT we spend the many hours using varying degrees of abrasives and sanding papers to bring out the highest possible polished brass finish.
