Texture Finish
Patina:
Patinas are living finishes that naturally evolve over time in response to use, light, and environmental factors. Lacquered patinas, however, halt the natural patina process to prevent its aging.
Finished Made by Hand
All work performed by BELT is crafted by hand by skilled artisans; therefore, there may be subtle changes in the character, look and feel on finish of the final pieces. Thus, slight color or grain differences do not constitute grounds for complaint.
APPLICATION & USES
Unlimited: Unlimited in all scenarios. This finish is available for interior and
exterior uses.
Limited: Limited to cold rolled steel and hot rolled steel. Finishes may appear slightly different depending on the material selected, as each base metal interacts uniquely with the applied finish.
