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.

	Embossed	Hand-beaten	Special texture	Hairline
Family	Textured	Textured	Textured	Polished
How it looks	Raised pattern pressed into the sheet, from geometric repeats to bespoke ornamental artwork.	Formed entirely by hand.	Surfaces worked or grown to a tactile grain — crystalline, mottled, stony, or crazed like old glaze — that catches side light and changes as the light moves.	A fine unidirectional grain.
Metals	Brass, copper, stainless steel	Brass, copper	Brass, copper, stainless steel, mild steel	Stainless steel, brass, aluminium

Worth knowing	The pattern repeats at the size of the tool, so a very large field shows the repeat.	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.	Deep textures collect dirt and grease, so they belong away from kitchens, counters and the outdoors.	A scratch across the grain is visible from a distance.
Looking after it	Dust settles in the recesses; a soft brush clears it.	As for hammered: a soft brush, a damp cloth, nothing abrasive.	Dust with a soft brush and wipe; a deep grain holds what a flat surface would shed.	Wipe along the grain, never across it, with a mild detergent and a soft cloth.
