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	Vibration	Distressed	Cast & relief
Family	Polished	Polished	Patinated	Cast
How it looks	Fully reflective.	A non-directional swirled grain that scatters light.	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.	Deep three-dimensional panels and medallions cast from a pattern, then hand-finished.
Metals	Stainless steel, brass, copper, bronze	Stainless steel, brass	Brass, copper, mild steel	Brass, bronze, aluminium
Where it suits	Indoors	Indoors and outdoors	Indoors	Indoors and outdoors
Worth knowing	Shows every fingerprint and every scratch, so it belongs where it will be looked at and not handled.	Hard to carry cleanly around a tight curve, so it suits flat and gently formed panels.	No two panels are the same, which is the point.	A pattern has to be made before anything is cast, so a one-off medallion carries the cost of its tooling.
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 in any direction — there is no grain to respect, which is why it hides scuffs better than any other polished surface.	Wax or a clear coat holds the effect; dust it, and wipe with a damp cloth.	A soft brush for the relief, a damp cloth for the face.
