BECCHETTI FINISHES

FINISH 00 - RAW BRASS NOT POLISHED

The surface is subject to mechanical abrasion giving the product a natural aspect. No protection has been used to avoid natural oxidation of the surface.

FINISH 01 - POLISHED BRASS

The surface is polished. No protection has been used to avoid natural oxidation of the surface.

FINISH 02 - BRONZED BRASS

The whole surface is subject to chemical oxidation (bronzing) resulting in a dark brown colour; the surface is then varnished to keep its characteristics  unaltered in time.

FINISH 03 - SATINED LAQUERED BRASS

The whole surface is satined manually and finally varnished to keep its characteristics unaltered in time.

FINISH 05 - CHROME PLATED BRASS

The whole surface is subject to an electrolytic treatment of metal plating; the surface appears perfectly polished and reflecting; this finish is mainly suitable where oxidation is very strong.

FINISH 06 - SATIN CHROME

The whole surface is butter finished manually and finally subject to an electrolytic treatment of metal plating; the surface appears silky and non-reflecting

FINISH 07 - SCRATCHED BRONZED BRASS

The whole surface is butter finishd after a chemical oxidation (bronzing), which results in a dark brown colour; the surface is then butter finished manually and varnished to keep its characteristics unaltered in time.

FINISH 08 - POLISH LACQUERED BRASS

The whole surface is butter finished manually and finally varnished to keep its characteristics unaltered in time.

FINISH 12 - GOLD PLASTED

The whole surface is subject to an electrolytic treatment of metal plating and then varnished to keep its characteristics unaltered in time; the surface appears polished and reflecting.

FINISH 18- NICKELED BRASS

The whole surface is subject to an electrolytic treatment of metal plating; the surface appears polished and reflecting .

FINISH 17 - SATIN NICKELED BRASS

The whole surface is first subject to an electrolytic treatment of metal plating; it is then butter finished manually and  finally varnished to keep its characteristics unaltered in time.

FINISH 19 - SILVER PLATED

The whole surface is subject to an electrochemical silver treatment, with a level of purity 999/000, and than varnished to preserve its original bright features and its silvery beauty.

FINISH 20 - WHITE

The whole surface is varnished; the surface appears mat white. The varnish used is a mix of polyester resins and special lightproof pigments.

FINISH 23 -  MAT BLACK

The whole surface is varnished; the surface appears mat black. The varnish used is a mix of polyester resins and special lightproof pigments.

FINISH 27 - OIL RUBBED WITH MAT VARNISH

The whole surface in subject to chemical oxidation, brozing, obtaining a dark brown colour and later coated with a thin layer of mat varnish to keep its characteristics unchanged.

FINISH 35 - SANDED GOLD BRASS

The whole surface is first sandblasted, then subject to an electrolytic treatment of metal plating and finally varnished; the surface appears regularly mat and rough.

FINISH 37 - OLD BRASS

This particular effect is due to handcraft manual plugging treatment, resulting in a “spottet aged” effect. The whole surface   is varnished, thanks to a mat electrostatic varnish, which protects the surface.

FINISH 41 - OIL RUBBED WITH WAX DEPOSITION

The whole surface is subject to chemical oxidation (bronzing), resulting in a dark brown colour; the surface is then subject to natural wax deposition for greater uniformity and for protecting the surface colour. Due to the natural products used for this finish, the item will change in time by acquiring  a more aging effect.

FINISH 44 - ANCIENT NICKEL

The item is first subjected to a special aging process resulting in a worn-out effect. The whole surface is then subjected to an electrolytic metal plating and finally to oxidation; it is then submitted to an abrasion treatment resulting in a natural aging effect and later coated with a thin layer of flat varnish to keep its characteristics unaltered in time.

FINISH 47 - ANCIENT COPPER

The item is first subjected to a special aging process resulting in a worn-out effect. The whole surface is then subjected to an electrolytic metal plating and finally to oxidation; it is then submitted to an abrasion treatment resulting in a natural aging effect and later coated with a thin layer of flat varnish to keep its characteristics unaltered in time.

FINISH 49 - ANCIENT BRASS

The item is first subjected to a special aging process resulting in a worn-out effect. The whole surface is then subjected to an electrolytic metal plating per micron and then to oxidation; it is then submitted to an abrasion treatment resulting in a natural aging effect and later coated with a thin layer of flat varnish to keep its characteristics unaltered in time.

FINISH P1 - PVD ( Physical Vapour Deposition )

This is a special coating for protection against atmospheric agents and domestic detergents; this is based on the physical principle of vacuum metal evaporation, which, at a ionic state, condense by forming a deposit on a substratum after reacting with a gas and thus forming a compound.
