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	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.	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.	Deep three-dimensional panels and medallions cast from a pattern, then hand-finished.

Where it suits	Indoors	Indoors and outdoors	Indoors	Indoors and outdoors
Worth knowing	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.	A living finish: it will keep ageing, and the places people touch will develop their own highlights.	A pattern has to be made before anything is cast, so a one-off medallion carries the cost of its tooling.
Looking after it	Lacquered, it is simply wiped.	Mild detergent and a soft cloth.	Dust only, or a barely damp cloth.	A soft brush for the relief, a damp cloth for the face.
