The allure of verdigris is that it can take decades to form naturally, shaped by the elements over time. Yet, with Axolotl’s mastery of patina, waiting a lifetime is no longer necessary.

In an age where design increasingly seeks to stand out from the crowd, be it with colour and form, a sense of depth and history, or the connection between the indoors and the natural world, Verdigris is emerging as the latest trendsetter.

Part of Axolotl’s core patina range, this renowned finish captures the beauty and essence of weathering when copper, bronze, and brass metals are exposed to the forces of nature — sea salt and moisture — producing a striking, bluish-green hue. The oxidation process, when left to its own devices, can take years, but Axolotl’s skilled artisans have perfected it, delivering this timeless texture with artistic precision within days, ensuring that each piece is a unique expression of the organic world. 

Verdigris brings a sense of depth and antiquity, making it a compelling choice for contemporary spaces. Whether applied to doors, facades, or bespoke furniture, Verdigris introduces an understated yet captivating touch of colour - its green-blue tones both grounding and evocative of nature’s own palette.

Aged bronze doors become art pieces, delicate lighting fixtures gain a refined pop of colour, and even joinery takes on a textured beauty. Verdigris, with its nuanced approach to colour, is a perfect companion to neutral materials like stone, timber, and concrete, lending a timeless patina that evolves with a distinctive character and charm over time.

Beyond its visual appeal, Verdigris offers functional advantages. As metal oxidises, it forms a protective layer, guarding the surface against further corrosion. This makes Verdigris an ideal solution for outdoor applications, where beauty must meet durability. Axolotl has refined this natural process, ensuring that the finish is not only stunning but also long-lasting. Verdigris fuses with the metal surface and, unlike paint, will never deteriorate or peel away. 

Each piece, whether used in interior or exterior projects, is a work of art. The patina is hand-applied in our Sydney factory, guaranteeing that every surface is an original. Each project, whether bold or understated, is tailored to your aesthetic and architectural vision.
