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 looks	Design bitten into the surface, producing fine detail and artwork that cannot be achieved mechanically.	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.	Formed entirely by hand.	A worked surface of controlled dents that breaks reflection into hundreds of small highlights.

Where it suits	Indoors and outdoors	Indoors	Indoors and outdoors	Indoors and outdoors
Worth knowing	Shallow by nature, so it wears where hands and feet pass — a wall or a panel, not a counter or a step.	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.	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.	The dents hold dust and, outside, water.
Looking after it	Mild detergent and a soft cloth.	Wipe with a soft damp cloth.	As for hammered: a soft brush, a damp cloth, nothing abrasive.	A soft brush lifts dust from the dents; a damp cloth for marks.
