Frequently asked questions
What is oil-rubbed bronze?
Oil-rubbed bronze (ORB) is a hand-applied finish on solid bronze or brass hardware that produces a deep, warm, slightly variegated tone. True ORB is a process applied to the metal itself, not a paint or coating.
What is the difference between true oil-rubbed bronze and coated lookalikes?
True oil-rubbed bronze is a hand-applied finish on solid metal that ages with use, developing subtle variation. Coated lookalikes are sprayed or plated finishes on cheaper substrates, which chip, scratch, or peel rather than age. Casson Hardware curates true ORB pieces only.
Does oil-rubbed bronze develop variation over time?
Yes. True ORB develops subtle variation as the finish responds to touch, humidity, and cleaning — softening into a more lived-in tone. This is part of the finish's intended character.
What categories does Casson Hardware carry in oil-rubbed bronze?
Casson Hardware carries ORB cabinet hardware (pulls, knobs, appliance pulls), door hardware (levers, knobs, hinges, flush pulls), bath accessories, hooks, and select lighting fixtures.
