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 looksRaised pattern pressed into the sheet, from geometric repeats to bespoke ornamental artwork.Softer and more open than hairline, with a matt reflection that sits comfortably beside stone and timber.A worked surface of controlled dents that breaks reflection into hundreds of small highlights.One tone fading into another across a panel — brass into bronze, gold into gun metal, warm into dark — graded by hand so that the transition has no step.

Worth knowingThe pattern repeats at the size of the tool, so a very large field shows the repeat.Small repairs blend better than on hairline but a damaged area is still re-brushed across the whole face.The dents hold dust and, outside, water.A gradient that runs across several panels is set out as one drawing and graded as one batch, so that it continues across the joints.
Looking after itDust settles in the recesses; a soft brush clears it.Along the grain, mild detergent, soft cloth.A soft brush lifts dust from the dents; a damp cloth for marks.Wipe with a soft damp cloth.
