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.

	Brushed & satin	Vibration	Cast & relief	Smoky effect
Family	Polished	Polished	Cast	Patinated
How it looks	Softer and more open than hairline, with a matt reflection that sits comfortably beside stone and timber.	A non-directional swirled grain that scatters light.	Deep three-dimensional panels and medallions cast from a pattern, then hand-finished.	Soft clouds of dark tone drifting across a warm ground.
Metals	All metals	Stainless steel, brass	Brass, bronze, aluminium	Brass, copper, bronze
Where it suits	Indoors and outdoors	Indoors and outdoors	Indoors and outdoors	Indoors
Worth knowing	Small repairs blend better than on hairline but a damaged area is still re-brushed across the whole face.	Hard to carry cleanly around a tight curve, so it suits flat and gently formed panels.	A pattern has to be made before anything is cast, so a one-off medallion carries the cost of its tooling.	Suits panels, cladding and furniture seen as a whole.
Looking after it	Along the grain, mild detergent, soft cloth.	Wipe in any direction — there is no grain to respect, which is why it hides scuffs better than any other polished surface.	A soft brush for the relief, a damp cloth for the face.	Lacquered, it is simply wiped.
