Streetscape Brass Mailboxes - Design and Materials
Made from heavy gauge solid brass sheet and bar stock, Streetscape brass mailboxes are handmade in Huntington Beach, California using only the highest quality workmanship. The Westchester Mailbox, for example, has over 150 individual spot welds and each component is hand cut. The care in craftsmanship results in a heavy, solid, refined feel that is unique to the market. The mailbox flags are straight with smoothe movements due to the process of insulating the mounting hardware with two nylon sleeves. The door uses a solid brass or stainless steel continuous hinge with uniform seams. Streetscape's brass products are truly pieces of art, each one with it's own individual character.
Polished Antique Patina (Pap) Finish
Streetscape offers a unique, proprietary brass finish that was discovered by accident using a blend of chemical and hand worked processes on brass. The PAP Finish is not uniform, nor is it intended to be. Each box is hand finished and will vary from one to the next depending on many factors including temperature, humidity, and variations in metal composition.
When new, the finish will have varying degrees of red and brown, with even some pink and yellow possible. As it ages, all of those colors will darken and dull, becoming more uniform with time. This is a natural brass finish, uncoated, and is designed to darken and dull with age.
The amount of patina, if any (blue/green highlights), will not increase over time even if exposed to salt air. Some styles, including most wall mount mailboxes, do not show any patina.
Brass Care:
- Natural brass finish requires no maintenance
- Periodic cleaning with a sponge and warm water, wiped dry with a non-abrasive towel will help to maintain the original sheen
- Finish can be polished as desired to maintain a higher sheen
- Suggested: Non-wax furniture polish (use of any abrasive material will damage the finish)
*Note:
Per Manufacturer: We do not accept returns on the basis of finish variation.
The interior of the brass mailboxes are wiped clean, but unfinished (raw yellow brass) and may have some residual streaks as a result of the finishing process.
