Overview

Newport Brass (formerly Brasstech) designs and manufactures solid-brass fixtures for kitchens and baths, continuing a legacy of craftsmanship since 1989. Its products are assembled in-house by experienced workers and finished with hand-applied finishes, ensuring durability and a timeless look. The company focuses on enduring materials and careful construction, offering fixtures that emphasize permanence, provenance, and purpose rather than short-lived trends. Newport Brass differentiates itself through solid brass construction, in-house craftsmanship, a curated palette of finishes, and Southern California roots that blend coastal elegance with American resilience. The goal is to provide fixtures that endure for generations, combining heritage with sophisticated design for architects, designers, and homeowners.
