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.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.Softer and more open than hairline, with a matt reflection that sits comfortably beside stone and timber.Formed entirely by hand.

Worth knowingThe pattern repeats at the size of the tool, so a very large field shows the repeat.Deep textures collect dirt and grease, so they belong away from kitchens, counters and the outdoors.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.
Looking after itDust settles in the recesses; a soft brush clears it.Dust with a soft brush and wipe; a deep grain holds what a flat surface would shed.Along the grain, mild detergent, soft cloth.As for hammered: a soft brush, a damp cloth, nothing abrasive.
