The Autumn Verdigris Finish Guide
Aged bronze tones with subtle turquoise verdigris patina
Inspiration
The Autumn Verdigris Finish captures the beauty of transformation — where layers of bronze and turquoise meet to create a naturally aged, timeworn surface. Inspired by the shifting tones of autumn and the elegant wear of antique finishes, this look brings warmth, depth, and a subtle glow to any decorative piece. It’s a finish that feels both artistic and storied, like something discovered rather than created.

About This Finish
The Autumn Verdigris Finish is achieved through layers of metallic mica, soft milk paints, and subtle patina tones that mimic the natural aging process. By blending bronze shimmer with cool blue-green pigments, each piece develops a luminous depth and authentic aged character. Antiquing Glaze, waxes, and Dust of Ages complete the transformation — enhancing every detail with a refined, historical charm. The result is an elegant, versatile finish perfect for adding a touch of vintage artistry to any space.
