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	Surfaces worked or grown to a tactile grain — crystalline, mottled, stony, or crazed like old glaze — that catches side light and changes as the light moves.	Green, deep blue, algae, deep red, burnished, rustic, deep white and a range of blacks — colour grown in the metal, not painted on.	A worked surface of controlled dents that breaks reflection into hundreds of small highlights.	Fully reflective.

Worth knowing	Deep textures collect dirt and grease, so they belong away from kitchens, counters and the outdoors.	A living finish.	The dents hold dust and, outside, water.	Shows every fingerprint and every scratch, so it belongs where it will be looked at and not handled.
Looking after it	Dust with a soft brush and wipe; a deep grain holds what a flat surface would shed.	Nothing abrasive, ever.	A soft brush lifts dust from the dents; a damp cloth for marks.	A soft dry cloth for dust and a damp one for marks — never anything abrasive, which scratches a mirror surface permanently.
