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.	Green, deep blue, algae, deep red, burnished, rustic, deep white and a range of blacks — colour grown in the metal, not painted on.	A non-directional swirled grain that scatters light.	Surfaces worked or grown to a tactile grain — crystalline, mottled, stony, or crazed like old glaze — that catches side light and changes as the light moves.

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.	A living finish.	Hard to carry cleanly around a tight curve, so it suits flat and gently formed panels.	Deep textures collect dirt and grease, so they belong away from kitchens, counters and the outdoors.
Looking after it	As for hammered: a soft brush, a damp cloth, nothing abrasive.	Nothing abrasive, ever.	Wipe in any direction — there is no grain to respect, which is why it hides scuffs better than any other polished surface.	Dust with a soft brush and wipe; a deep grain holds what a flat surface would shed.
