Architectural Finishes
At Palmer, our finishes are a defining feature. Our components are crafted from solid brass, an ideal candidate for both plated and living finishes due to its resistance to corrosion and ability to hold fine details.
Each finish is engineered and designed to complement high-end interiors. Our variety of options allows for both precision-matched applications and uniquely expressive design outcomes.

Plated Finishes
Plated with precision to Palmer’s uncompromising standards, these finishes combine lasting beauty with engineered durability. Each surface is bonded with layers of nickel or chrome to enhance both depth and resilience.
The result is a collection of timeless finishes that balance technical performance with enduring visual integrity.
Polished Chrome
Polished Chrome
PCSolid Brass tubing & components are polished to a mirror finish and then richly plated with a lustrous chrome finish.
This brightly polished finish will not tarnish and will generally need no care other than normal cleaning and dusting with a damp soft cotton cloth.
Polished Nickel
Polished Nickel
PNSolid Brass tubing & components are polished to a mirror finish and then richly plated with a lustrous nickel finish.
This durable finish will eventually tarnish very slightly and may require some light polishing to remove fingerprints.
Satin Nickel
Satin Nickel
SNSolid Brass tubing & components are polished, given a satin finish and then richly plated with nickel.
This durable finish will eventually tarnish very slightly and may require some polishing to remove fingerprints.
Aged Nickel
Aged Nickel
ANSolid Brass tubing & components are polished, given a light satin finish, richly plated with nickel, and then chemically aged to a deeper tone.
The surface is then hand relieved to achieve an artisanal character before being coated with Carnauba wax which is then buffed to a lustrous finish.
This durable finish will eventually tarnish very slightly and may require some light polishing to remove fingerprints.
Living Finishes
Evolving with use, these hand-applied finishes reveal a living patina reflecting the unique character of place, touch, and the passage of time. Unlacquered by design, each surface matures with quiet grace, gaining warmth, depth, and a patina unique to its surroundings.
The result is an authentic expression of material character that continues to evolve long after installation.
Polished Brass Un-Lacquered

PBULSolid Brass tubing & components are polished to a mirror finish. Over time, the surface will develop a distinctive patina, prized by designers for its characterful appearance.
This is a “Living Finish” which will, over time, age to a classic brass patina, or it can be periodically polished to maintain a bright brass finish.
Satin Brass Waxed

ABULSolid Brass tubing & components are polished and then chemically treated to achieve a relatively uniform patina resulting in an aged look with a slight satin finish which is then coated with Carnauba wax and buffed to a lustrous finish.
This is a “Living Finish” which will, over time, age and mature in appearance.
Oil Rubbed Bronze

ORBSolid Brass tubing & components are polished and then chemically treated to achieve a rich dark hue to simulate aged bronze. This finish is then coated with Carnauba wax and buffed to a lustrous finish.
This is a “Living Finish” which will, over time, age and mature in appearance.
Coated
Protected with fine lacquers and clear coatings, these finishes preserve their luster while tempering the effects of age. Engineered for enduring beauty in high-use environments, each surface resists tarnish and wear with minimal maintenance.
Favored by architects and hospitality designers, this family of finishes combines enduring durability with a quietly polished aesthetic.
