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.

Swipe sideways to see every finish.

How it looksGreen, 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 worked surface of controlled dents that breaks reflection into hundreds of small highlights.Deep three-dimensional panels and medallions cast from a pattern, then hand-finished.

Worth knowingA 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.The dents hold dust and, outside, water.A pattern has to be made before anything is cast, so a one-off medallion carries the cost of its tooling.
Looking after itNothing abrasive, ever.As for hammered: a soft brush, a damp cloth, nothing abrasive.A soft brush lifts dust from the dents; a damp cloth for marks.A soft brush for the relief, a damp cloth for the face.
