Is Brass the New Stainless Steel?

Bomber jackets, velvet, brass…. what do all of these things have in common? They are 80’s trends that are back in style today! Although bomber jackets and velvet are great, we’re here today to talk about good old BRASS. Just like everything else, if you wait long enough it is bound to come back in style. Brass no longer looks outdated, it now adds a luxurious and beautiful touch to your home. Now you might be thinking, “how could that shiny gold material possibly look good in my home? “ Well, brass isn’t as shiny and overpowering as it once was. It provides that subtle touch of elegance without making you feel like your back in the 80s.

There are plenty of ways to add hints of brass throughout your home without going overboard. Take a look at some of our suggestions.
