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.

Family	Polished	Coated	Polished	Patinated
How it looks	Fully reflective.	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.	A fine unidirectional grain.	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.

Where it suits	Indoors	Indoors	Indoors and outdoors	Indoors
Worth knowing	Shows every fingerprint and every scratch, so it belongs where it will be looked at and not handled.	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.	A scratch across the grain is visible from a distance.	No two panels are the same, which is the point.
Looking after it	A soft dry cloth for dust and a damp one for marks — never anything abrasive, which scratches a mirror surface permanently.	Wipe with a soft damp cloth.	Wipe along the grain, never across it, with a mild detergent and a soft cloth.	Wax or a clear coat holds the effect; dust it, and wipe with a damp cloth.
