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.

How it looks	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.	Raised pattern pressed into the sheet, from geometric repeats to bespoke ornamental artwork.	Design bitten into the surface, producing fine detail and artwork that cannot be achieved mechanically.	A worked surface of controlled dents that breaks reflection into hundreds of small highlights.
Metals	Stainless steel, brass, aluminium	Brass, copper, stainless steel	Stainless steel, brass	Brass, copper, bronze

Worth knowing	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.	The pattern repeats at the size of the tool, so a very large field shows the repeat.	Shallow by nature, so it wears where hands and feet pass — a wall or a panel, not a counter or a step.	The dents hold dust and, outside, water.
Looking after it	Wipe with a soft damp cloth.	Dust settles in the recesses; a soft brush clears it.	Mild detergent and a soft cloth.	A soft brush lifts dust from the dents; a damp cloth for marks.
