That's great! I wasn't a big fan of the disco RGB.

It really looks good!

I just remembered, the brass and copper don't have engravings. I wonder if that has to do with the metal, because they get a patina.

In the photo you linked, there's no visible engraving, neither on the product page, unlike the aluminum one.

Edit: Hold on, is it stonewashed? Here, we can see it being stonewashed. I honestly like both, but I think I prefer the stonewashed. Maybe they planned to make both.

There is also an image showing the laser engraving:

It’s getting confusing

Oh sorry I mixed that up, the Wurkkos rep called it “bead-blasted” but that sounds more like stonewashed than brushed.

There were also some alternate finishes for the previews, maybe one will make it into production.

I hope so, I actually really like both finishes.
