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	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.	A non-directional swirled grain that scatters light.	Soft clouds of dark tone drifting across a warm ground.	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.

Worth knowing	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.	Hard to carry cleanly around a tight curve, so it suits flat and gently formed panels.	Suits panels, cladding and furniture seen as a whole.	A living finish: it will keep ageing, and the places people touch will develop their own highlights.
Looking after it	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.	Wipe in any direction — there is no grain to respect, which is why it hides scuffs better than any other polished surface.	Lacquered, it is simply wiped.	Dust only, or a barely damp cloth.
