- Brushed finishing to reduce glare and hide minor surface marks
- Painting for colour schemes that require non-reflective surfaces
Manufacturing Process
How the Part Is Made
- Scheme design based on the site context, including scale, orientation, and visual impact
- Small model created to test form and proportion before full-scale production
- Mould or form developed to shape the wave profile from stainless steel plate
- Steel plate formed and welded into the wave shape, with repeated grinding for smoothness
- Surface treated with mirror polish, brushed finish, or paint as required
- Final assembly and packing in a wooden crate with inner plastic or foam for transport

Comparison
How It Compares With the Alternatives
| A figurative sculpture | A wave form avoids narrative or symbolism, making it suitable for modern spaces where abstraction is preferred |
|---|---|
| A painted mild steel sculpture | Painted steel may chip or fade; stainless holds its finish permanently, especially in outdoor settings |
| A fiberglass wave sculpture | Fiberglass is lighter and cheaper but cannot be mirror polished and is less durable in direct sunlight |
| A corten steel sculpture | Corten changes over time with weathering; this piece maintains its original surface for long-term consistency |
Use Guide
Fitting and Running It
- Choose the size based on the space it will occupy, not on a catalogue standard
- Place the sculpture where it can reflect sky, water, or planting to enhance its visual effect
- Ensure the base and fixing are designed for wind load, especially at larger sizes
- Clean the surface with water and a soft cloth; avoid abrasives that damage the polish
- Specify 316 stainless steel if the site is near the coast or uses road salt in winter
- Plan 25 to 30 days for production plus 15 to 20 days for transport from the date of order
