Liquid Metal
At Hare & Humphreys, our Liquid Metal finishes bring a striking contemporary edge to interiors while retaining the craftsmanship and subtlety that define our work. Combining advanced materials with traditional decorative techniques, Liquid Metal transforms walls, panels and bespoke joinery into surfaces that shimmer with depth and refinement.
Liquid Metal finishes are created by applying a fine layer of real metal particles over a chosen substrate. Once cured, the surface is hand-burnished, patinated or textured to achieve a range of effects — from a sleek, mirror-like polish to an aged, softly burnished patina.
This specialist finish is prized for its versatility. It can wrap entire feature walls in warm bronze, cool pewter or rich brass tones. It can highlight architectural details, bespoke cabinetry, or joinery with a subtle metallic sheen. In grand interiors, Liquid Metal brings a modern counterpoint to traditional plaster, timber or gilding. In contemporary spaces, it adds depth and quiet opulence.
Every Liquid Metal commission is unique. Our artisans work closely with designers, architects and private clients to develop bespoke colours, finishes and textures that respond to the light and character of each setting.
