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.	Brass, gold, champagne, rose gold, copper, bronze, gun metal, black nickel and antique brass tones, plus oxidised and custom colour coatings — the way to put a warm metal’s colour on stainless steel.	Chemically aged and then selectively relieved, so highlights and recesses read differently — antique brass, oxidised bronze, darkened copper — with the character of a piece that has already had a life.	A non-directional swirled grain that scatters light.

Worth knowing	A living finish.	A scratch through a PVD or coated surface is through the colour, and it cannot be touched up invisibly — the panel is refinished or replaced.	A living finish: it will keep ageing, and the places people touch will develop their own highlights.	Hard to carry cleanly around a tight curve, so it suits flat and gently formed panels.
Looking after it	Nothing abrasive, ever.	Mild soap and water, soft cloth, nothing abrasive and no strong cleaners — the colour is a thin layer and is kept by not attacking it.	Dust only, or a barely damp cloth.	Wipe in any direction — there is no grain to respect, which is why it hides scuffs better than any other polished surface.
