We finished the headset in alumite, rather than painting to bring out the inherent beauty of the metal. The alumite's distinctive colour variations — it can look like anything from brass to stainless steel — allowed us to express its honesty as a tool for everyday use.
The headset's surface will change over time, as it accumulates the minute scratches and marks that come naturally through use. These incidental yet planned details will bring further depth and attachment to the headset, like those of a well-loved pen used for years.
