Frequently Asked Questions

Is this worth the investment compared to cheaper alternatives?

Yes. Cheaper handles are usually brass plated zinc that chips and corrodes within a few years. This is solid brass, hand forged, so the finish is the material itself, not a coating that can wear off.

Will these fit my existing faucet?

These handles are made for standard 1/2 inch threaded valves. Check your existing valve threading before ordering to confirm fit.

How do I know which handle is hot and which is cold?

The valve stem is color-coded, red for hot and blue for cold, so installation is straightforward.

How does the unlacquered brass patina develop?

Over weeks and months of normal handling, the surface will gradually darken and develop warm tones. It’s a natural process, not a flaw.

What if I’m not satisfied?

You have 30 days to return it for a refund if it’s not right for you, as long as it’s unused and in its original packaging.
