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	A non-directional swirled grain that scatters light.	Fully reflective.	Formed entirely by hand.	Design bitten into the surface, producing fine detail and artwork that cannot be achieved mechanically.
Metals	Stainless steel, brass	Stainless steel, brass, copper, bronze	Brass, copper	Stainless steel, brass
Where it suits	Indoors and outdoors	Indoors	Indoors and outdoors	Indoors and outdoors
Worth knowing	Hard to carry cleanly around a tight curve, so it suits flat and gently formed panels.	Shows every fingerprint and every scratch, so it belongs where it will be looked at and not handled.	No two panels are the same, and that is the reason to choose it — a sample approves a character and a range, not a match.	Shallow by nature, so it wears where hands and feet pass — a wall or a panel, not a counter or a step.
Looking after it	Wipe in any direction — there is no grain to respect, which is why it hides scuffs better than any other polished surface.	A soft dry cloth for dust and a damp one for marks — never anything abrasive, which scratches a mirror surface permanently.	As for hammered: a soft brush, a damp cloth, nothing abrasive.	Mild detergent and a soft cloth.
