Installation Guide
Measure your vanity countertop cutout carefully to accommodate the 17-inch round semi-recessed drop-in configuration before cutting.
Apply a bead of silicone sealant around the underside of the sink rim to secure it firmly against the countertop surface.
Install a compatible 1.5-inch drain assembly without an overflow, tightening gently to avoid over-compressing the copper basin.
Wipe down the sink basin and apron front with a soft cloth after initial installation to remove any construction dust or debris.
Care & Maintenance
Daily Cleaning Wash the copper surface using mild dish soap, warm water, and a soft sponge after each use.
Drying Pat the bowl dry with a soft microfiber towel to prevent hard water spots from forming on the antique dark finish.
Avoid Harsh Chemicals Never use abrasive scouring pads, bleach, ammonia, or acid-based cleaners that can strip the copper finish.
Wax Protection Apply a quality copper wax every few months to maintain the original dark sheen and protect against rapid patina development.
No Standing Water Avoid leaving wet washcloths or metal cans sitting directly on the copper bottom for extended periods.
