Breaking Down Metal Finishes | Where To ...

Alice Lane
About this episode
Today we’re doing a little podcast on metal finishes mainly from a listener question that we had come in, but we’ve also had a few of these hot topics in our own minds that we felt like we should solve, so we’re putting them all together and calling it ‘Metal Finishes.’ One of our listeners wanted to know our favorite finishes for cabinet knobs and poles, saying ‘polished nickel for plumbing? Thanks for any advice.’ We’ve been saying that silver is king from here on out, which we’re seeing in fashion and homes are following suit.

  • Metal finishes 11:05
  • Cabinet knobs and poles for polished nickel plumbing 13:40
  • Different ways to finish metals 15:25
  • Plated metal 20:30
  • Different types of finishes 22:10
  • Brass 24:30
  • Nickel 29:40
  • Bronze 33:50
“ I think that’s really good to know yourself in finishes, which is why we’re doing this podcast so that if you’re a perfectionist, you are not gonna want anything unlacquered. You’re gonna wanna know that that is stayed and true, and you are gonna really love lacquered brass, or you’re gonna love electro plated if it’s done very, very well, or even gold leafed.” 19:58
