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 looksSofter and more open than hairline, with a matt reflection that sits comfortably beside stone and timber.Formed entirely by hand.Raised pattern pressed into the sheet, from geometric repeats to bespoke ornamental artwork.Design bitten into the surface, producing fine detail and artwork that cannot be achieved mechanically.

Worth knowingSmall repairs blend better than on hairline but a damaged area is still re-brushed across the whole face.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.The pattern repeats at the size of the tool, so a very large field shows the repeat.Shallow by nature, so it wears where hands and feet pass — a wall or a panel, not a counter or a step.
Looking after itAlong the grain, mild detergent, soft cloth.As for hammered: a soft brush, a damp cloth, nothing abrasive.Dust settles in the recesses; a soft brush clears it.Mild detergent and a soft cloth.
