Installation Guide
Verify countertop cutout dimensions carefully, keeping in mind that handmade copper sinks may feature slight dimensional variances.
Choose between drop-in or undermount installation according to your countertop fabrication and personal preference.
Apply a bead of high-grade silicone sealant around the perimeter flange to ensure a watertight bond with the countertop surface.
Connect standard 3.5-inch drain assemblies and U.S. plumbing traps securely without over-tightening threaded components.
Care & Maintenance
Daily Cleaning: Wash the sink basin regularly using mild dish soap, warm water, and a soft cloth or sponge.
Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Never use abrasive cleaners, bleach, or harsh chemical pads that can strip the natural copper finish.
Dry After Use: Wipe down the basin periodically with a soft towel to prevent hard water mineral spotting if desired.
Embrace the Patina: Allow the copper to age naturally; minor color variations are part of the normal living finish process.
Optional Waxing: Apply a light coat of copper sink wax every few months to protect the finish and repel water spots.
