The solid brass construction of our Coastal products will stand up to the harshest of weather conditions. Please note that natural brass is an untreated raw material and the finish will change over time. The structural integrity of the brass will remain, but as the product ages the surface will naturally oxidise and mottle, and in time will achieve a distinctive patina that is part of its charm. If you wish to maintain the original look of the brass for as long as possible, we recommend that the product is rinsed with fresh water every few months.
