Oil Rubbed Bronze is considered a category "B" finish by ANSI/BHMA and will vary in color when applied to different alloys and forms of base material. ORB will also vary from the production lot and additionally from one manufacturer to another. ORB will wear off over time due to the "rubbed" finishing method that has no protective coating or plating.
