brass hardware
Golden-toned door pieces
Brass hardware refers to metal fittings and fixtures made from brass—an alloy of copper and zinc.
This includes door handles, hinges, knobs, drawer pulls, and decorative trim.
Brass hardware is valued for its durability and warm golden appearance, though it may be lacquered or left to develop a natural patina: The antique dresser had its original brass hardware.
