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. | Softer and more open than hairline, with a matt reflection that sits comfortably beside stone and timber. | 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 | Brass, copper | Brass, copper, stainless steel | All metals | Brass, copper, mild steel |
| Where it suits | Indoors and outdoors | Indoors and outdoors | Indoors and outdoors | Indoors |
| 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. | Small repairs blend better than on hairline but a damaged area is still re-brushed across the whole face. | No two panels are the same, which is the point. |
| Looking after it | As for hammered: a soft brush, a damp cloth, nothing abrasive. | Dust settles in the recesses; a soft brush clears it. | Along the grain, mild detergent, soft cloth. | Wax or a clear coat holds the effect; dust it, and wipe with a damp cloth. |
