Product & Finishes
Our hardware is crafted from solid brass, selected for its durability, strength and ability to age beautifully over time. Brass is particularly well suited to frequently used spaces, including kitchens and bathrooms.
We choose brass for its longevity, resistance and timeless character. Unlike hollow or lightweight alternatives, solid brass offers a substantial feel and is designed to endure everyday use.
Depending on the finish, brass may also evolve naturally over time, developing a unique patina through touch, climate and exposure to its environment.
Our signature finish palette includes:
- Polished Brass
- Bronze
- Champagne Bronze
- Carbon Black
- Satin Nickel
- Polished Nickel
Availability may vary depending on the product.
They are two distinct finishes.
Champagne Bronze has a warmer, lighter golden tone, while Bronze has a deeper, darker and more earthy appearance.
A living finish is designed to evolve naturally over time.
Our unlacquered brass reacts to touch, climate, humidity and its surroundings, gradually changing in colour, lustre and texture. This natural ageing process creates a patina unique to each piece and is considered part of the character of the material rather than a defect.
We make every effort to represent our materials and finishes as accurately as possible. However, colours and textures can vary depending on screen settings, lighting and the natural characteristics of the finish.
For larger orders, we recommend ordering a sample first to experience the material and finish in person.
Yes. We recommend ordering a sample or individual piece before committing to a larger quantity, particularly when selecting a finish.
Design professionals can also order our Sample Box and Finish Swatch Box on our website.
Each piece is supplied with the appropriate anchors and screws, with screws selected to match the finish of the hardware.

Eligible products may be returned within 14 calendar days of delivery, subject to our return conditions.
Before returning any item, please contact our Customer Care team to obtain return authorisation and instructions. Returned products must be unused and in their original condition and packaging.
Some products, including custom-made and special-order items, may not be eligible for return.

Yes. Mi&Gei products are covered by warranty against eligible manufacturing and material defects.
Warranty terms vary between residential and commercial applications and according to the product or mechanism.
Living finishes are designed to evolve naturally over time and their patina is therefore not covered as a finish defect.
Care & Installation
For everyday care, clean your hardware gently using mild soap and water and a soft cloth.
Avoid abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, steel wool or scouring pads, as these may damage the surface or alter the finish.
For polished finishes, use a clean, soft, non-abrasive cloth.
VIEW CARE GUIDE
Yes, and this is intentional.
Unlacquered brass is a living material that develops a natural patina through use and exposure to its environment.
The way it evolves will depend on touch, humidity, climate and maintenance, making each piece increasingly individual over time.
Compatibility depends on the product, door thickness and door preparation.
We recommend checking the specifications of your chosen product before ordering or contacting our team with your door dimensions.
CONTACT US FOR TECHNICAL SUPPORT
Yes, particularly for door hardware and more technical applications.
Professional installation helps ensure correct fitting, optimal performance and compliance with applicable warranty requirements.
