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.

	Hairline	Hammered	Brushed & satin	Smoky effect
Family	Polished	Textured	Polished	Patinated
How it looks	A fine unidirectional grain.	A worked surface of controlled dents that breaks reflection into hundreds of small highlights.	Softer and more open than hairline, with a matt reflection that sits comfortably beside stone and timber.	Soft clouds of dark tone drifting across a warm ground.
Metals	Stainless steel, brass, aluminium	Brass, copper, bronze	All metals	Brass, copper, bronze
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 dents hold dust and, outside, water.	Small repairs blend better than on hairline but a damaged area is still re-brushed across the whole face.	Suits panels, cladding and furniture seen as a whole.
Looking after it	Wipe along the grain, never across it, with a mild detergent and a soft cloth.	A soft brush lifts dust from the dents; a damp cloth for marks.	Along the grain, mild detergent, soft cloth.	Lacquered, it is simply wiped.
