As copper ages, it develops a dark brown patina. Weathered copper is a rich brown finish that simulates naturally aged copper. Darker than polished copper, weathered copper has the same reddish-orange undertones. Weathered copper is a distressed finish that is also sometimes called antique copper. Often, weathered copper is a living finish that changes with time and use. Weathered or antique copper is especially popular for Arts & Crafts era hardware.
