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	A fine unidirectional grain.	Raised pattern pressed into the sheet, from geometric repeats to bespoke ornamental artwork.	Green, deep blue, algae, deep red, burnished, rustic, deep white and a range of blacks — colour grown in the metal, not painted on.	A surface deliberately aged — mottled, darkened and worn back in places — so that new metal reads as if it has been in the building for decades.
Metals	Stainless steel, brass, aluminium	Brass, copper, stainless steel	Copper, brass, bronze, zinc	Brass, copper, mild steel
Where it suits	Indoors and outdoors	Indoors and outdoors	Indoors and outdoors	Indoors
Worth knowing	A scratch across the grain is visible from a distance.	The pattern repeats at the size of the tool, so a very large field shows the repeat.	A living finish.	No two panels are the same, which is the point.
Looking after it	Wipe along the grain, never across it, with a mild detergent and a soft cloth.	Dust settles in the recesses; a soft brush clears it.	Nothing abrasive, ever.	Wax or a clear coat holds the effect; dust it, and wipe with a damp cloth.
