Material and patina

The Cortenys signature patina. Applied to the Corten steel in the workshop, then sealed with an included protective varnish.

Material
Corten steel
Protective varnish
Workshop-applied to Corten steel surfaces to seal the patina and enhance its depth. It greatly reduces rust marks on the wall without ruling them out: avoid a very pale or porous render and protect the floor below the wall light. Other materials retain their own finish.

Returns and warranty

Fourteen days to change your mind, return at our expense.

Care

Our Corten steel pieces receive the Cortenys signature patina in the workshop, before delivery: they never reach you bare, left to weather at home. Indoors, a protective varnish is essential; even varnished, the steel can still mark a light or porous floor, so we recommend protecting it. For everything else, follow the care recommendations for your piece and its finish.

The Cortenys signature patina

The character of Corten steel. From day one.

The Cortenys signature patina is applied in the workshop before delivery, then the Corten steel parts receive a protective varnish. The varnish enhances and stabilises the patina and strongly reduces rust transfer, but does not rule it out: even varnished, Corten steel can still release runoff and stain floors and terraces, especially light or porous ones. We recommend protecting the floor before installation: small feet or spacers, or a drip tray, under pieces that stand on the floor, protection for the floor or table below a wall or pendant light, no direct contact with light surfaces, and wiping away any runoff promptly. Follow the varnish care advice to keep it at its best.

Indoor wall light in Corten steel

Aura, a painting of light framed in Corten steel.

Aura is an indoor wall light in Corten steel, composed by Cortenys in the manner of a painting. A square frame with solid sides is fixed to the wall, leaving its centre open; the light, concealed inside the frame, washes the wall and gives rise to a luminous square bordered in steel. The whole piece plays between solid and void, between shadow and halo.

01 / Aura

For so simple a frame to hold its own, nothing can be left to chance: the evenness of the sides, the crispness of the corners, the complete discretion of the source. Made to order, Aura reaches you with the Cortenys signature patina already applied in the workshop: Corten in shades of earth, amber and deep rust, which each piece interprets in its own way. In a hotel corridor, on an entrance wall or above a console, it brings indoors the warmth of luxury Corten steel furniture. Three formats are available.

02 / Aura

Aura never shows its source: it gives the wall a square of light, and proves that a Corten wall light can carry itself like a work of art.
