One of the top qualities people consider when shopping for a sink is the durability of the material. Copper sinks are highly durable because they are naturally stain and rust resistant. Also, there are copper sinks that are finished with a hand-hammered texture, allowing the surface to blend in any marks of its daily use.

Copper sinks are always described as having “personality”. This is because over the years, copper sinks develop their own patina. This means your sink will gracefully darken the copper, deepening its character while protecting the sink’s surface. This characteristic is a work of art by mother nature and cherished by many copper sink owners.
