Care & Maintenance
Routine Cleaning Wash the sink bowl regularly with mild liquid soap and warm water using a soft sponge.
Drying Wipe the surface dry with a soft cloth after use if you want to temporarily slow down natural patina development.
Avoiding Harsh Chemicals Never use abrasive scouring pads, steel wool, bleach, or harsh acidic cleaners that could strip the finish.
Preventing Prolonged Exposure Do not leave wet metal cans or acidic foods sitting on the copper surface for extended periods.
Wax Protection Apply a quality copper wax periodically if you wish to preserve the current patina tone and add water repellency.
