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 | Formed entirely by hand. | Raised pattern pressed into the sheet, from geometric repeats to bespoke ornamental artwork. | 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. | Brass, gold, champagne, rose gold, copper, bronze, gun metal, black nickel and antique brass tones, plus oxidised and custom colour coatings — the way to put a warm metal’s colour on stainless steel. |

| Worth knowing | 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 pattern repeats at the size of the tool, so a very large field shows the repeat. | A living finish: it will keep ageing, and the places people touch will develop their own highlights. | A scratch through a PVD or coated surface is through the colour, and it cannot be touched up invisibly — the panel is refinished or replaced. |
| Looking after it | As for hammered: a soft brush, a damp cloth, nothing abrasive. | Dust settles in the recesses; a soft brush clears it. | Dust only, or a barely damp cloth. | Mild soap and water, soft cloth, nothing abrasive and no strong cleaners — the colour is a thin layer and is kept by not attacking it. |
