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.	Soft clouds of dark tone drifting across a warm ground.	Design bitten into the surface, producing fine detail and artwork that cannot be achieved mechanically.	Raised pattern pressed into the sheet, from geometric repeats to bespoke ornamental artwork.
Metals	Stainless steel, brass, aluminium	Brass, copper, bronze	Stainless steel, brass	Brass, copper, stainless steel

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.	Suits panels, cladding and furniture seen as a whole.	Shallow by nature, so it wears where hands and feet pass — a wall or a panel, not a counter or a step.	The pattern repeats at the size of the tool, so a very large field shows the repeat.
Looking after it	Wipe with a soft damp cloth.	Lacquered, it is simply wiped.	Mild detergent and a soft cloth.	Dust settles in the recesses; a soft brush clears it.
