More About Our Hardware
Beautiful hardware should do more than look good in a photo. It should resist everyday marks, hold its finish, feel right in the hand, and arrive without guesswork.
Durable finishes that keep their look
Selected PVD finishes are made for stronger resistance to wear, tarnishing and day-to-day marks, helping your hardware keep its colour over time.
Solid feel in daily use
Each piece is chosen for reassuring weight, balanced proportions and clean lines that make everyday drawers and cupboards feel more considered.
Lower-risk finish selection
Compare tones through the complimentary finish sample kit, then order with Brisbane dispatch, 60-day returns on unused items and 3-year warranty coverage.
More mark-resistant surfaces
Selected finishes are chosen to better resist fingerprints and everyday handling marks, so high-touch cabinetry stays looking considered.
Scratch-resistant finish options
PVD finish options are built for stronger scratch and corrosion resistance than standard decorative coatings in normal indoor use.
Effortless Installation
Save time and stress — beauty that’s as easy to install as it is to admire.

2. Product Information
What are your products made of?
Our hardware is crafted from durable zinc alloy, ensuring strength and longevity.
What finishes do you offer?
We offer PVD finishes (Brushed Brass, Warm Bronze, Gold, Rose Gold) and electroplated finishes (Black, Satin, Chrome).
What is a PVD finish?
PVD (Physical Vapour Deposition) is a high-quality finishing process that creates a durable, long-lasting, and luxurious surface. It offers superior resistance to scratches, tarnishing, and corrosion compared to traditional finishes.
Why should I choose PVD finishes?
PVD finishes, such as Gold and Rose Gold, are not only visually stunning but also highly durable, ensuring your hardware maintains its elegance and shine over time.
Will the handles age or develop a patina over time?
No. Aestara handles are not raw or unlacquered brass, so they are not designed to develop a natural brass patina. They are made from zinc alloy and finished with either PVD coating or electroplating to help keep the colour more consistent over time. PVD finishes are generally selected for stronger resistance to wear, tarnishing and corrosion; electroplated finishes can still perform well in normal indoor use, but like any coated hardware they may gradually dull, mark or show wear in high-touch areas if exposed to harsh cleaners, abrasion, moisture or heavy use. To protect the finish, wipe with a soft damp cloth and avoid abrasive or chemical cleaners.
Do your products come with a warranty?
Yes, we offer a 3-Year Limited Warranty covering manufacturing defects under normal indoor use.
