Above you see the bottom of The Copper Depots single bowl farmhouse apron sink.   It has a straight apron supported by (3) 14 guage supports.  Take notice of how those supports provide stability not only to the middle of the apron, but also to the corners.   Getting an apron straight is a difficult task and is performed by skilled Artesian.  These supports are vital to ensure your apron will look beautiful and straight for years to come.  You might also notice that the bottom of the sink is trauphed to allow for proper drainage to the 3.5" drain.

  When it comes to ordering online you cannot touch and feel the quality difference.  You must rely on the supplier to adaquitly represent the quality of there sink.  Knowledge is power when shopping online and as you can see by the above picture, not all copper sinks are created equal.  Now that you know what to look for you might notice that this competitors sink has poor apron support, the apron is made with a thin guage copper and is wavy.   The bottom of the sink is flat and therefore will not drain properly.  When shopping for a copper sink, do not simply look at the price.   Paying a little extra will generally get you the quality and beauty that you expect.

 

Above you see the bottom corner of 2 different copper kitchen sinks.  The one on the left is The Copper Depots.  The one on the right represent the majority of copper sink manufacturers out there.  If you don't know to look for it, you will miss it.  This Is The industries dirty little secret!

Why is the  Copper  Depots Sink Superior.

Simple again,  we take the time and expense of having our master craftsmen hand roll the bottom edges of the sink and corners.  We also trough the bottom of the sink to slope toward the draing to ensure the sink drains properly and does not trap food scraps.  Simply rinse and walk away.

Why is this such a big deal? 

Cleaning is the biggest concern for customers buying copper kitchen and bath products.  Imagine trying to keep the corners and edges of the sink on the right clean with those sharp 90 degree bends.  This design traps food and water and can be a cleaning nightmare.  Without proper drainage you will not be happy with your sink.

Why do most copper sink manufacturers produce sinks this way?

Simple, it's cheap to do so!   They take a sheet of copper, put it in a metal brake and simply bend the edges.  This is the fast and easy way to make a sinks, but it leaves those nasty 90 degree bends.

As Seen Below our Sink Are Tig Welded at the seam. 

You can see the pure copper rod being used in this process.  This ensures strong seamless joint that will not discolor.  After completing the weld the seam is heated up and hammered out to make it virtually invisable to the naked eye.

How do I care for my Copper Sinks?

The appeal of copper is unparalleled in today's finest homes. The biggest surprise to most people is how easy it is to care for our popular line of pre-patina'd copper products. While scrubbing and polishing may be true for shiny copper... that's certainly not the case with our products! All of our sinks, tabletops, and tubs are hand crafted with a patina finish which is fired into the copper's surface giving each item it's beautiful 'weathered' or 'aged' appearance.

To keep clean, simply wash your sink with soap and water. Rinse your sink as you normally would after use. Copper has a natural anti-bacterial surface. Lastly, always avoid using anything abrasive that may remove the patina. That's it!

Following this simple routine of 'rinse and wash', your copper sink, tabletop, or bathtub will give you a lifetime of enjoyment!

For an added layer of protection, especially in 'hard water' areas, consider coating your sink, tub, or tabletop with a high quality wax.  We recommend "Multi Surface Wax". This will help maintain the luster of the patina while providing better water runoff. It is available in our ebay store.

NOTE: With acidic foods such as... lemons, tomatoes, mustard, pineapple, vinegar, etc., it is best to leave water running while working with products and foods of this nature and remember to thoroughly rinse your sink immediately after use. If the copper surface should get scratched or affected by one of these acidic foods, the copper will naturally regain its original, aged patina with regular use and time.

NOTE: With hard water, just a quick soft cloth-drying after each use and an occasional light waxing helps prevent possible spots. With acidic foods such as tomatoes, citrus fruit and anything with vinegar, etc., just rinsing with water ensures keeping the surface integrity.

If the copper surface should get scratched, it will regain its original, aged patina with regular use and no other care procedure.

The most important thing to remember about this copper is:
DO NOT use abrasive cleansers or disinfectants on the non-shiny copper.  It does NOT require that much work! Make sure to rinse your bathroom sink well if using whitening toothpaste as it can bleach the copper as well as your teeth.

ENJOY YOUR BEAUTIFUL SINKS AND BATHTUBS FOR YEARS TO COME!
