What defines Violet Noir as a signature brass finish in luxury design

The Violet Noir brass finish is a sophisticated and exclusive new addition to Castro’s range of exclusive finishes. A deep tone infused with subtle violet undertones, it merges the cool refinement of black nickel with the warmth of brass, resulting in a finish that is both bold and nuanced.

This brass finish plays beautifully with light — appearing almost graphite in shadow and revealing a quiet violet glow under direct illumination. The effect is understated yet powerful, offering a rich alternative to traditional blacks or silvers in luxury design.

How the Violet Noir brass finish enhances handcrafted brass

For over four decades, Castro has honed the art of working with handcrafted brass. Violet Noir is the result of that expertise — a luxury brass finish that respects the material’s natural qualities while introducing a new level of depth and elegance.

Applied through a precise, layered process, the Violet Noir finish reacts organically with brass, drawing out its warmth and adding dimension to every curve and contour. This makes it ideal for statement lighting pieces, where detail, form, and finish must work in harmony.

Why Violet Noir embodies the legacy of Portuguese craftsmanship

Craftsmanship is at the heart of every Castro creation. Rooted in Portugal’s rich artisanal tradition, the Violet Noir brass finish is a reflection of that legacy — a surface treatment that speaks of precision, heritage, and artistic intent.

Each piece finished in Violet Noir is a testament to the brand’s pursuit of timeless design. More than just a finish, it is an expression of identity — one that seamlessly unites tradition and innovation in a singular aesthetic statement.
