SURFACE TREATMENTS
Copper Finishes
Cafe
Reddish, brown, blue, and sometimes purplish hues begin to bloom from the natural copper and coat the surface with an even color which mimics the first stage of patina formation seen in metal aged 1 to 5 years.
Dark Verdigris
Soft blue-green highlights begin to emerge from the soft bronzed background, emulating early term patina formation between 5 to 15 years.
Light Verdigris
Deeper blue-green highlights blossom from the dark bronze background, as found on copper during late term patina formation, between 15 to 25 years.
Historic
Fully developed copper patina as seen on exterior copper aged 30 or more years.
Nebula
Combines the cascading crystal formation seen in nature with the hand of the artist to produce stunning visual effects.
Zinc
Soap Stone
Zinc is treated so that gray and black textures begin to emerge, adding dimension to create an interesting and dynamic surface
Lithic Zinc
Natural zinc is treated to express an almost iridescent red, brown, and purplish hue in a range of textures.
Brass
Reddened Brass
Architectural grade brass sheets are treated to achieve deep hues often associated with bronze statuary. Available in a variety of textures and shades, the colors that emerge are deep, luminous, luxurious, and complex.
Steel
Weathered Steel
Steel is treated to express the dark blueish reds of raw iron exposed to the elements, and is sealed to prevent further rusting and runoff.

Advantages of Natural Metals
Self Healing
Natural metal finishes are self healing. Scratches and grazes incurred throughout their lifetime will fill in and heal to match the surrounding patina.
Recycled Materials
We are conscious of our footprint and use recycled metals when possible to help do our part.
Built to Last
These materials are time honored and tested to ensure that they will last for generations.
Natural Beauty
The natural variation of our materials is finely adapted by our specialists to make each piece a work of art.
