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	Patinated	Cast	Polished
How it looks	Fully reflective.	Green, deep blue, algae, deep red, burnished, rustic, deep white and a range of blacks — colour grown in the metal, not painted on.	Deep three-dimensional panels and medallions cast from a pattern, then hand-finished.	A non-directional swirled grain that scatters light.
Metals	Stainless steel, brass, copper, bronze	Copper, brass, bronze, zinc	Brass, bronze, aluminium	Stainless steel, brass
Where it suits	Indoors	Indoors and outdoors	Indoors and outdoors	Indoors and outdoors
Worth knowing	Shows every fingerprint and every scratch, so it belongs where it will be looked at and not handled.	A living finish.	A pattern has to be made before anything is cast, so a one-off medallion carries the cost of its tooling.	Hard to carry cleanly around a tight curve, so it suits flat and gently formed panels.
Looking after it	A soft dry cloth for dust and a damp one for marks — never anything abrasive, which scratches a mirror surface permanently.	Nothing abrasive, ever.	A soft brush for the relief, a damp cloth for the face.	Wipe in any direction — there is no grain to respect, which is why it hides scuffs better than any other polished surface.
