Patina (color) and hammering pattern may vary due to the handmade quality of our products. Dimensions can vary +/- .5".
Our Mexican copper sinks are not sealed which makes the patina a "living finish". In a kitchen sink, do not place aluminum or hot pots or pans directly on the bottom of the sink. Also do not leave it for any period of time as this will cause a ring that is either lighter or darker on the bottom of the sink. Soap pumps that spill over in the same place can also remove the patina. Do NOT use acidic or corrosive products such as vinegar, abrasive cleaners, including "Soft Scrub", copper cleaners (these will shine the sink just like the picture on the jar), citric acids like lemon (if left on the bottom, once removed, a shiny spot will remain), tomato products (i.e. Spaghetti or BBQ sauce) or harsh chemicals or cleaners (i.e. bowl cleaner, lime away products, etc). These substances can strip the living patina off the sink to a shiny and sometimes pinkish copper color. Should this happen not to worry, the natural oxidation of the copper will darken the sink back naturally.
Use CopperSinkCare copper sink wax or conditioning oil to help protect from changes. If lightening has occurred, allow to darken before using the wax or oil. Apply as directed. CopperSinkCare products are all natural, food and people safe.

MUST HAVE Neutral Cure Silicone, 100% Pure. 2.8oz. Tube. Custom Color Dark. Perfect match to our Patinas. Use for sealing edges as well as sealing around drain. This is a must have item for the installation of our copper sinks. This silicone provides a great seal for the dark drains and the dark or medium patinas. Do NOT use PLUMBERS PUTTY! (Plumbers putty can cause a greening around the drain and is too light a color for the dark copper coloring. Use of Plumbers Putty will void the warranty of both the sink and the drain if used.) Neutral Cure Silicone will not cause the "Green" reaction to the copper the way other silicone sealers can. Regular silicone contains chemicals that can cause a reation when applied to the copper, the neutral cure will not cause a reaction. This neutral cure silicone is ready to use and is applied the same way you would apply regular silicone sealants. Dries quickly and the color blends so well it looks like it's part of the sink. A single tube can be used to install several bath or bar sinks and is enough for a kitchen sink application.
