While trends come and go, there are some design elements that endure and fit seamlessly into luxury homes of any era or style. Well-crafted brass details are high on that list. Beautiful brass faucets and hardware are as desirable now for modern, high-end homeowners as they were for aristocrats hundreds of years ago.
To satisfy this ongoing craving for elegance, architects and designers seek out the most high-quality, pristinely-sculpted brass fixtures possible for their clients. A trade secret? Working with Newport Brass: A California-based brand known for its made-to-order customization, solid brass construction, handmade artisanship, and blend of West Coast ease and East Coast refinement.
These 15 kitchens and bathrooms—ranging in style from sleek, organic minimalism to European-inspired—show how Newport Brass pieces add beauty, character, and soft brilliance to any home.
As these spaces reveal, the options are endless with Newport Brass and designers can always achieve the exact look they desire. The brand, which was founded in 1989 in Southern California and makes all their brass fixtures there to this day, has over 30 complete kitchen and bath collections with every product available in 22 finishes.
For nearly four decades, Newport Brass has been designing their pieces for those who see homes as a reflection of legacy, not of fleeting trends. They believe in the stillness of craftsmanship, enduring presence of something made with care, and in carrying tradition forward.
Top designers, architects, and builders who work with discerning clients on their main homes and second homes resonate with Newport Brass’s ethos and rave about their stunning products. People who come to them know they are sourcing pieces weaved with provenance, purpose, and heritage—intended to last beautifully for generations. Modern heirlooms made of solid brass.
“In a world of increasingly uniform interiors, materiality matters more than ever. Thoughtfully crafted brass adds warmth, character, and architectural depth—the kind of details that allow a home to feel collected rather than manufactured,” says Lindzey Lawler of Curated Design.
Even with its name, Newport Brass calls to mind the sought-after sophistication of classic, American design. “Newport” references storied coastal communities, from the brand’s founding home of Newport Beach, California to Newport, Rhode Island. Both places famed for their tradition, fine taste, and aspirational lifestyles.
