FINISHES & TEXTURES
At GARRIDO we are inspired by transforming an ethereal idea into a reality, imagining the most complex designs, elegant silhouettes into beautiful creations. Always striving to push the boundaries of design even further we develop collections of textures and patterns to embellish our pieces. Inspired by the natural world our artists Juan & Paloma Garrido create a diverse array of patterns to accompany new collections of work. Using hand-etching, hammering and chemical etching techniques the designs are developed according to the aesthetic of the collection. Discover a selection of our most recent signature treatments and textures.
Agate
Hand-hammered with mallets leaving overlaying imprints on the surface.
Flourite
Hand-worked with different hammers gently pressed onto the surface at different angles.
Howlite
The surface is gently chased by steel chisels leaving metal with delicate textures.
Sycamore
The lines are etched by hand using a bruin, which extracts thin shavings from the metal surface.

Repetitively hand-hammered with a lotus-like embossed hammer.

Hand-worked with a specially designed mallet, creating overlapping textures.

Painstaking hand-hammered with a number of chasing tools.
