Aluminum Vs. Anodized Aluminum | Airplane Style Furniture

If you have a small space to furnish, aluminum is a great choice. Similar to the effect that hanging a large mirror in a small space does to create the illusion of a larger area, adding a highly reflective object, such as one of our furniture pieces, reflects the light and brightens the space, giving the room a larger feel.

We have been broadening the selection of metal types available here at RamonaMetal for our different pieces of aviator furniture, and now have available two types of aluminum material for two completely different looks.

One is aluminum, and the other is anodized aluminum.

What is the difference?

First off, the sheen. As you can see below, the aluminum is semi-reflective of the surroundings, giving a more mirror-like appearance, while the anodized aluminum gives it a matte look.

Aluminum’s greatest asset is that it doesn’t rust. There is no paint or coating to wear off. Anodizing the aluminum is a process that increases the thickness of the coating, making it harder, thicker, and even more resistant to corrosion. It is more durable from normal wear and usage.

Anodized aluminum can also be made into different colors, such as black, that we use in all of the pieces of our Black Ops Collection.

Pure aluminum has a beautiful reflective quality.

Anodized aluminum has more durability.
