Silbern eloxiert, eloxieren, as opposed to chrome.

natural anodized or anodized
The reason is that aluminium is originally silver in colour. Normally, before the anodizing an etching is done to get the material prepared and to give the material a certain matt appearance. The German specific term for that is E6 EV1, E6 refers to the surface preparation etching, EV1 clear anodizing.
