THE COPPER SINK STORE STORY

Copper sinks seem like an edgy, modern twist for your bathroom, but copper is actually one of the oldest materials used to create plumbing fixtures. For more than 10,000 years we’ve been utilizing this material, so bringing it into our bathrooms for use as a sink is not really a stretch. In the past, you could almost be certain that upon entering any bathroom, you would be greeted by a boring, plain, under mounted white ceramic sink.

The choices today are virtually limitless, and a copper sink is a natural choice for a rustic country or European inspired kitchen or bathroom. Our copper sinks are primarily made in small shops, typically in Mexico, who utilize the techniques for construction from centuries ago. Often referred to as hand hammered sinks, this technique involves artisans manually hammering sheets of copper into shape to give it a rustic look.
