ASHLEY NORTON PRESS RELEASE CONTACT: Holly Berecz Duehr & Associates, LLC 1902 Wright Pl, Ste 200 Carlsbad, CA 92008 (760) 918-5622 holly@duehrandassociates.com A Champagne-Inspired Finish from Ashley Norton, Natural Bronze Resembles a Glass of Bubbly After each piece is sand cast from art-grade bonze, artisans hand-apply this striking “living finish” (Pompton Plains, NJ, September 21, 2021) Raise a glass to Ashley Norton’s latest finish. With a warm undertone that closely resembles a sparkling glass of champagne, Natural Bronze offers a fresh take on trending gold and brass finishes. Skilled artisans expertly apply this “living finish” to each individual piece of bronze after it’s cast. Developing a rich patina over time, Natural Bronze is timeless, yet modern. The versatile finish is available for all door and cabinet hardware and accessories in Ashley Norton’s Solid Bronze Collection. “When paired with the beautiful texture of our handmade bronze hardware, the Natural Bronze patina adds depth and elegance to the finished product,” states Ashish Karnani, Vice President of Ashley Norton. Since Natural Bronze is a “living finish,” it will oxidize when exposed to elements and touch. Over time, the hardware will develop its own special pattern of oxidation, giving each piece a uniquely distinctive one-of-a-kind character all its own. Natural Bronze is available for the entire Ashley Norton bronze collection. Other available finishes include White Bronze, Light Bronze, Dark Bronze, Matt Black, and White Medium. Available at leading kitchen and bath dealers throughout North America, Natural Bronze finishes range from $198 for passage sets to $548 for entrysets.
