for the warm brass option—is it really brass

7 years ago
This sounds like a stupid question, but I recently purchased a “brass” finish sconce that was actually kind of a tan-colored paint finish.

I have brass knobs on a cabinet nearby so I need the sconce to look like brass.

    Hi there,


    Thank you for your question!


    After reaching out to the manufacturer they have confirmed this item will not have a tan-color paint finish. It will arrive in the warm brass, which is a bit lighter than a standard brass. However, the warm brass finish is intended to be paired with brass hardware or mixed with hardware in other finishes.


    I hope this helps!
