The aging process that Botanica uses is unique. Pure granulated metals, marble and other materials are embedded into the resin containers
and then taken through an aging process, which results in a finish that resembles the real article. Which is also very easy to keep clean.
The metals, marble and other materials used include among others copper, bronze, iron, zinc, marble, sandstone and terra cotta that create a finish
in the most subtle hues of verdigris, sandstone, terra cotta, rusts, sand, greys and whites, which matures and improves with age increasing the products intrinsic value.
Finishes are also available in bright colours on the smooth finished products.
