Compare metals side by side

Choose two to four metals. The finish you see is decided on a physical sample, so ask for one before you decide.

Swipe sideways to see every metal.

	Bronze	Copper	Brass	Galvanized Iron (GI)
Character	Dense, quiet, and expensive-looking without trying.	Soft, ductile, and never quite finished changing.	Warm, generous, and alive to the touch.	Practical, weatherproof, and honest.
How it looks	Deep brown-gold through to near-black, matt or satin more often than bright.	Bright pink-orange when new, moving through browns to deep near-black, or driven deliberately to green and blue verdigris.	Ranges from a bright polished yellow through brushed and satin to deep antique and near-black.	Grey with a crystalline, spangled zinc surface that dulls to an even matt grey outdoors.
Where we use it	Staircase cladding and balustrades Lift surrounds and lobby panelling Large-format wall cladding Feature doors and entrance frames Fireplace surrounds and hearth details	Facade cladding and shingle systems Hand-beaten sculpture and wall art Ceiling baffles and coves Feature doors and entrance panels Boundary wall and exterior treatments	Wall cladding, panelling and inlays Screens, partitions and laser-cut patterns Console, coffee and dining tables Shower cubicles, mirror frames and bathroom details Balustrades, handrails and ornamental panels	Facade, screen and cladding panels Ceiling panels and perforated ceilings Gates, boundary screens and service enclosures Framing and supports behind other metals
Outdoors	Used externally on cladding and soffits.	One of the classic exterior metals.	Suitable externally where a living, weathering surface is intended, or with a protective coating where it is not.	Made for outdoor use: the zinc coat protects the steel beneath.
Finishes	7: mirror, brushed & satin, hammered, cast & relief, antique, patina, smoky effect	11: mirror, brushed & satin, hammered, hand-beaten, embossed, special texture, special effects, antique…	16: mirror, hairline, brushed & satin, vibration, hammered, hand-beaten, embossed, etched…	1: brushed & satin
In short	Where brass is warm and copper is bright, bronze is deep.	The most workable metal on the floor and the most unpredictable in service — which is exactly why it is used where character matters more than uniformity.	The metal most often asked for by name.	Mild steel with a coat of zinc.
