Material selection plays a defining role in how a space performs over time. In hardware, solid brass continues to be specified for its durability, consistency, and refined appearance across a wide range of interiors.

From kitchens and wardrobes to full-height joinery, solid brass offers a balance of performance and detail that supports both function and design.

Why Solid Brass?

Durability for Everyday Use

Solid brass is built to withstand frequent use. Its density prevents cracking, chipping, and structural wear, making it a reliable choice for high-use areas such as kitchens, bathrooms, and cabinetry.

Consistent Finish

Unlike plated materials, solid brass does not rely on surface coatings that can degrade over time. The finish remains stable, maintaining its appearance without peeling or flaking.

Weight and Tactility

The weight of solid brass creates a more substantial feel in use. This adds to the overall experience of the hardware, reinforcing a sense of quality through everyday interaction.

Surface Detail

Surface detailing influences how hardware sits within a space. Subtle variations in texture can introduce depth, reflect light, and change how a product is experienced both visually and physically.

Plain

A smooth, minimal surface that focuses on form and proportion. Plain finishes suit contemporary and architectural interiors where restraint is key.

Lined

Fine linear grooves introduce a sense of rhythm across the surface. This detailing reflects light differently throughout the day and adds a controlled layer of texture.

Knurled

Precision-cut knurling provides both grip and visual definition. It adds a stronger architectural detail while improving functionality, particularly in high-use areas.

Finishes

The finish of hardware plays a key role in how it integrates with surrounding materials. Each option is designed to complement timber, stone, and painted surfaces.

• Dark Brushed Brass
• Bronze
• Dark Bronze
• Matt Black
• Dull Brushed Nickel
• Brushed Satin Brass

These finishes allow for flexibility across different interior palettes, from light and minimal to darker, more layered spaces.

Solid Brass Collections

Momo solid brass collections are designed to work across entire projects, allowing consistency from kitchens through to wardrobes and joinery.

Ranges such as Belgravia, Bellevue, and Aspen offer a refined and versatile foundation.

Manhattan, Brighton, and Sussex place a stronger focus on surface detail, with lined and knurled textures that introduce a more defined architectural element.

A Complete Hardware Approach

A considered interior extends beyond handles. Supporting hardware ensures consistency across all touchpoints.

Door Stops

Designed in matching finishes, solid brass door stops provide durability while maintaining a cohesive look.

Cavity Sliders

Cavity sliders offer a clean, integrated solution for spaces where doors need to sit flush within walls.

Hinges

Matching hinges complete the hardware selection, ensuring continuity across doors and joinery.

Designed to Last

Solid brass offers long-term performance without compromising on appearance. Its durability, resistance to wear, and considered detailing make it a reliable choice for interiors that are designed to last.
