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.

	Mirror	Special texture	Patina	Brushed & satin
Family	Polished	Textured	Patinated	Polished
How it looks	Fully reflective.	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.	Green, deep blue, algae, deep red, burnished, rustic, deep white and a range of blacks — colour grown in the metal, not painted on.	Softer and more open than hairline, with a matt reflection that sits comfortably beside stone and timber.
Metals	Stainless steel, brass, copper, bronze	Brass, copper, stainless steel, mild steel	Copper, brass, bronze, zinc	All metals
Where it suits	Indoors	Indoors	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.	Deep textures collect dirt and grease, so they belong away from kitchens, counters and the outdoors.	A living finish.	Small repairs blend better than on hairline but a damaged area is still re-brushed across the whole face.
Looking after it	A soft dry cloth for dust and a damp one for marks — never anything abrasive, which scratches a mirror surface permanently.	Dust with a soft brush and wipe; a deep grain holds what a flat surface would shed.	Nothing abrasive, ever.	Along the grain, mild detergent, soft cloth.
