Our Finishes
Each Louis Fraser finish is carefully hand-applied using traditional techniques. Our finishes are designed to age beautifully, developing unique character over time.
Originals Collection
Creative Period Designs
The Originals collection features three distinctive finishes, crafted to complement both period and contemporary surroundings.
Oil Rubbed Bronze
Code: ORB
Cast from solid bronze, all items pass through a series of hand applied chemical processes to help achieve this natural patina with the finish completed with a thin coating of beeswax. In time and usage, the original colour of this product will slowly age, giving each piece its own natural uniqueness.
Suitable for internal and external use
Antique Pewter
Code: AP
Cast from solid bronze, all items pass through a series of hand applied chemical processes to help achieve this natural patina.
Suitable for internal and external use
Dull Black
Code: DB
Cast from malleable iron, a protective undercoat (phosphate) treatment is applied prior to the final coating of Black paint. A traditional dip paint process is used thereafter, to aid the dull Black appearance.
