Plated finishes

At Samuel Heath, each of our finishes is the result of a meticulous fusion of craftsmanship and chemistry; an expression of artistry that transforms every piece into a statement of enduring beauty.

Vintage Bronze Matt – VBM (Octelle only)

Developed exclusively for the Octelle collection, Vintage Bronze is a rich, deep bronze finish created through artisan-applied electroplating of multiple metal layers. Each piece is then hand-burnished around the chamfered edges to reveal the brass beneath. The result is a subtly individual finish with a warm, lived-in quality.

Chrome Plate – CP

Chrome plate finish is achieved by applying an initial layer of copper, followed by a layer of bright nickel and finally a coating of hard gloss chromium to achieve the lustrous hard-wearing mirror finish.

Matt Black Chrome – MBC

This coloured chrome finish is achieved by layering copper and satin nickel then a final layer of black chrome plate is applied to create this deep, smooth matt highly durable finish.
