Forge Bar Handle — Tapered Bar, Stepped Plinths
Beschreibung
The Industrial vocabulary.
A tapered round bar in solid brass, set between two concentric stepped plinths. Sand-cast and then CNC-lathed — the bar's gentle taper and the plinths' perfect concentric rings are the signature of precision machining.
This is Birmingham's industrial vocabulary: the foundry's craft meeting the machine's exactness.
Sand-cast in solid English brass. CNC-lathed at the workshop. Hand-finished by a single craftsperson, start to stamp.

Care & Maintenance
Solid brass is a living material. How to care for each finish depends on which one you have chosen.
Polished Unlacquered Brass — wipe with a dry cotton cloth. That is the entire routine. Avoid Brasso, Bar Keepers Friend, ammonia, bleach, vinegar; all will strip the patina. The metal will darken over months and brighten where touched. This is the point.
Aged Brass — wipe with a dry or barely damp cloth. Re-wax once every two to three years with natural beeswax.
Satin Brass (lacquered) — wipe with a damp cloth and dry. Avoid solvents and abrasives.
