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.

Family	Patinated	Polished	Polished	Textured
How it looks	Soft clouds of dark tone drifting across a warm ground.	A fine unidirectional grain.	A non-directional swirled grain that scatters light.	A worked surface of controlled dents that breaks reflection into hundreds of small highlights.
Metals	Brass, copper, bronze	Stainless steel, brass, aluminium	Stainless steel, brass	Brass, copper, bronze
Where it suits	Indoors	Indoors and outdoors	Indoors and outdoors	Indoors and outdoors
Worth knowing	Suits panels, cladding and furniture seen as a whole.	A scratch across the grain is visible from a distance.	Hard to carry cleanly around a tight curve, so it suits flat and gently formed panels.	The dents hold dust and, outside, water.
Looking after it	Lacquered, it is simply wiped.	Wipe along the grain, never across it, with a mild detergent and a soft cloth.	Wipe in any direction — there is no grain to respect, which is why it hides scuffs better than any other polished surface.	A soft brush lifts dust from the dents; a damp cloth for marks.
