Care & Maintenance
Use specialist copper cleaning products to remove tarnish, followed by copper wax to protect the finish. Without regular maintenance, the copper will naturally develop a patina — which many owners prefer for its unique character. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is a waste included?
No — a basin waste is required and sold separately. We recommend the BC Designs Push Down Basin Waste in Brushed Copper Brass (WAS220CO) for a perfectly coordinated finish.
Does the copper finish require maintenance?
Yes — to preserve the shiny, untarnished copper finish, regular waxing with specialist copper care products is required. Without maintenance, the copper will naturally develop a patina over time. Some owners prefer the patina for its unique character.
What are the benefits of copper?
Copper has natural antimicrobial properties that inhibit bacteria growth, excellent heat retention that keeps water warmer for longer, and a living finish that develops unique character over time. Each copper basin is truly one-of-a-kind.

This is a countertop / surface-mounted vessel basin. It sits on top of the vanity unit or worktop. Professional installation is recommended to ensure proper waste connection and secure positioning.
