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	Green, deep blue, algae, deep red, burnished, rustic, deep white and a range of blacks — colour grown in the metal, not painted on.	Formed entirely by hand.	A fine unidirectional grain.	Brushed swirls, directional grains and figured patterns worked into the sheet by hand and by machine — a finish that appears to move as you walk past it, because the grain catches light from one direction and not another.
Metals	Copper, brass, bronze, zinc	Brass, copper	Stainless steel, brass, aluminium	Brass, copper, stainless steel
Where it suits	Indoors and outdoors	Indoors and outdoors	Indoors and outdoors	Indoors
Worth knowing	A living finish.	No two panels are the same, and that is the reason to choose it — a sample approves a character and a range, not a match.	A scratch across the grain is visible from a distance.	The pattern is set by the sheet, so the layout of panels is decided with the pattern — a swirl cut through by a joint reads as a mistake.
Looking after it	Nothing abrasive, ever.	As for hammered: a soft brush, a damp cloth, nothing abrasive.	Wipe along the grain, never across it, with a mild detergent and a soft cloth.	Wipe along the grain, never across it, with a soft cloth.
