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.

Swipe sideways to see every finish.

	Mirror	Hammered	Ombre	Special texture
Family	Polished	Textured	Coated	Textured
How it looks	Fully reflective.	A worked surface of controlled dents that breaks reflection into hundreds of small highlights.	One tone fading into another across a panel — brass into bronze, gold into gun metal, warm into dark — graded by hand so that the transition has no step.	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.
Metals	Stainless steel, brass, copper, bronze	Brass, copper, bronze	Stainless steel, brass, aluminium	Brass, copper, stainless steel, mild steel
Where it suits	Indoors	Indoors and outdoors	Indoors	Indoors
Worth knowing	Shows every fingerprint and every scratch, so it belongs where it will be looked at and not handled.	The dents hold dust and, outside, water.	A gradient that runs across several panels is set out as one drawing and graded as one batch, so that it continues across the joints.	Deep textures collect dirt and grease, so they belong away from kitchens, counters and the outdoors.
Looking after it	A soft dry cloth for dust and a damp one for marks — never anything abrasive, which scratches a mirror surface permanently.	A soft brush lifts dust from the dents; a damp cloth for marks.	Wipe with a soft damp cloth.	Dust with a soft brush and wipe; a deep grain holds what a flat surface would shed.
