A flawless mirror finish is decided during welding and grinding, long before anyone reaches for a polishing mop.

Very little is needed, but the wrong product used once can undo a finish that took days to achieve.

Specifying a Sculpture for a Hotel Lobby
Lobby pieces have constraints that garden pieces do not: fixed ceilings, live operations and a delivery route through a finished building.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can a water drop piece be made to actually carry water
Yes, but it becomes a water feature, which changes the grade, the pipework and the drainage. Tell us at the enquiry stage and it is designed that way from the start.
Why are these more expensive per kilogram than a flat panel piece
Because there are no flat panels. Every surface is formed and every seam runs through a curve, which is many more hours of forming and dressing.
Quoting a Water Drop Sculpture Project
Send the position, the height you have in mind and any drawing you already have. A proposal, a price and a lead time come back against those figures.
