Choosing the right furniture finish is essential for achieving a polished, long-lasting look in outdoor furniture. At Castelle, we offer four distinct finishing techniques—Luxe, Brushed, Standard, and Antique—each designed to enhance the beauty and durability of our handcrafted aluminum furniture. While our finishes may resemble wood finishes, wood stains, or even varnish, every piece remains true to our commitment to high-performance aluminum furniture.
One of the key reasons we use cast and extruded aluminum is its superior durability compared to other materials. While our finishing techniques allow us to replicate the look of wood furniture or aged surfaces, aluminum ensures longevity and resistance to outdoor elements.
Unlike surfaces that may fade from sun exposure or other materials that might peel, our powder-coated and hand-applied finishes are weather durable, maintaining their beauty with minimal upkeep.
Luxe Finishes
Our Luxe finishes are all about sleekness and sophistication. These durable finishes are powder coated to achieve a shiny, glossy finish that is smooth to the touch and highly resistant to the elements. Our newest Luxe finishes, Cobalt and Bronze, exemplify modern elegance. Luxe is an elevated finish with a more refined shine compared to our Standard finishes. The powder coating process ensures an even surface coating, resulting in a sleek, high-shine appearance that enhances any outdoor space.
Brushed Finishes
If you love the look of wood grain, our Brushed finishes offer the perfect solution. Created through an intricate hand-painting process, these finishes replicate the richness of wood furniture while retaining the strength of aluminum.
Our newest Brushed finishes include Teak and Weathered Dark Rum. The Teak finish is carefully painted to mimic the look of real wooden furniture, delivering the warmth and character of fine furniture without the upkeep of traditional wood surfaces. Meanwhile, Weathered Dark Rum captures the essence of an aged wood stain, giving an elegant yet rustic appeal.
Standard Finishes
Our Standard finishes provide a range of classic and contemporary options for outdoor furniture. These finishes are applied using a powder coating process, ensuring a durable finish that withstands outdoor conditions. Standard finishes come in neutral colors, offering a timeless and versatile aesthetic. Castelle’s Standard finishes are designed for long-lasting beauty with minimal maintenance.
Antique Finishes
For those who appreciate a stain-like effect with depth and texture, our Antique finishes offer a stunning option. Created using hand-applied techniques, these finishes emulate the character of wood dyes and stain while enhancing the structure of our aluminum furniture. The layering process ensures a satin finish that highlights the intricate details of each piece, creating an aged look with rich character.
The Right Finish for Your Space
Whether you prefer the smooth elegance of Luxe, the authentic wood surface look of Brushed, the versatility of Standard, or the rich depth of Antique, Castelle provides a range of different finishes to complement any outdoor setting. Unlike traditional wooden surfaces, our furniture finishes require no ongoing maintenance, offering a hassle-free alternative with timeless appeal.
For those seeking the beauty of outdoor furniture with durability and craftsmanship, Castelle’s innovative finishing techniques provide the ideal solution. With a variety of resilient finishes, our handcrafted fine furniture guarantees lasting beauty in any outdoor space.
