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.

Family	Polished	Textured	Textured	Cast
How it looks	Softer and more open than hairline, with a matt reflection that sits comfortably beside stone and timber.	Formed entirely by hand.	Design bitten into the surface, producing fine detail and artwork that cannot be achieved mechanically.	Deep three-dimensional panels and medallions cast from a pattern, then hand-finished.
Metals	All metals	Brass, copper	Stainless steel, brass	Brass, bronze, aluminium

Worth knowing	Small 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.	Shallow by nature, so it wears where hands and feet pass — a wall or a panel, not a counter or a step.	A pattern has to be made before anything is cast, so a one-off medallion carries the cost of its tooling.
Looking after it	Along the grain, mild detergent, soft cloth.	As for hammered: a soft brush, a damp cloth, nothing abrasive.	Mild detergent and a soft cloth.	A soft brush for the relief, a damp cloth for the face.
