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 worked surface of controlled dents that breaks reflection into hundreds of small highlights.	Chemically aged and then selectively relieved, so highlights and recesses read differently — antique brass, oxidised bronze, darkened copper — with the character of a piece that has already had a life.	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.	Formed entirely by hand.

Worth knowing	The dents hold dust and, outside, water.	A living finish: it will keep ageing, and the places people touch will develop their own highlights.	No two panels are the same, which is the point.	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 it	A soft brush lifts dust from the dents; a damp cloth for marks.	Dust only, or a barely damp cloth.	Wax or a clear coat holds the effect; dust it, and wipe with a damp cloth.	As for hammered: a soft brush, a damp cloth, nothing abrasive.
