Compare finishes side by side
Choose two to four finishes. A finish is always approved on a physical sample of your metal, so ask for samples of the ones you like.

| How it looks | Chemically aged and then selectively relieved, so highlights and recesses read differently — antique brass, oxidised bronze, darkened copper — with the character of a piece that has already had a life. | A non-directional swirled grain that scatters light. | Formed entirely by hand. | Soft clouds of dark tone drifting across a warm ground. |
| Metals | Brass, copper, bronze | Stainless steel, brass | Brass, copper | Brass, copper, bronze |
| Where it suits | Indoors | Indoors and outdoors | Indoors and outdoors | Indoors |
| Worth knowing | A living finish: it will keep ageing, and the places people touch will develop their own highlights. | Hard to carry cleanly around a tight curve, so it suits flat and gently formed panels. | No two panels are the same, and that is the reason to choose it — a sample approves a character and a range, not a match. | Suits panels, cladding and furniture seen as a whole. |
| Looking after it | Dust only, or a barely damp cloth. | Wipe in any direction — there is no grain to respect, which is why it hides scuffs better than any other polished surface. | As for hammered: a soft brush, a damp cloth, nothing abrasive. | Lacquered, it is simply wiped. |
