Ceramic

Glazing and high firing of ceramics produces a beautiful china-like finish. Gloss and matte finishes are available.


Climatized Metal

All plated metal and wood finishes are protected with a clear lacquer finish to maximize the durability and longevity of the finish. In high humidity areas (coastal regions) we recommend additional finish protection available for an additional charge to prevent corrosion and rust.


Wood Staining

Challenger offers a broad selection of wood finishes. Please note, wood is a natural material with character, color and grain patterns, which vary even within the same tree. For this reason, we cannot guarantee that all lamps will have the same wood characteristics. Please request an actual wood sample for your reference, or supply your sample chip for custom matching at no extra cost.
