11 New Antique Copper Hammered Sink Styles

Whether you are creating a contemporary kitchen with a distinctive copper backdrop or designing your room with an old world, traditional theme, Elkay's new Antique Copper Hammered finished sinks marry a combination of unique shapes and functional features that captivate the senses and create an interior space that is distinct. Copper, a time-honored material for creating distinguished residential spaces, has been used extensively for pots and pans, range hoods, pot racks and decorative tile. Elkay's Antique Copper Hammered sink finish introduces this unique metal into the sink space, making an individual style statement while creating a warm and timeless complementary conversation piece.

Elkay's new Antique Copper Hammered sinks are made from 100 percent recycled copper, featuring a one-of-a-kind finish that is handcrafted by artisans, who focus on the meticulous detail of making each sink's hammered design pattern exceptional. The finish's deep, rich tones add a sense of warmth and welcoming to any room, while its intriguing texture ignites the senses of the homeowner, making their interaction with the sink a more authentic, old-world experience. With an ever-changing patina, Elkay's Antique Copper Hammered finish will continue to transform through the years becoming darker and richer, which adds more character to the sink's finish.

Elkay, the company that helped elevate stainless steel to become the benchmark of kitchen design, expands into new finishes to provide its customers with more customized, design-centric options for their sink than ever before. Also, when developing this new finish, Elkay continued its mission to always make quality, durable products, so this sink will look beautiful and stay beautiful for years to come, adding to the aesthetic value. All the Antique Copper Hammered sinks are also equipped with sound-deadening pads to ensure a peaceful experience for the homeowner by dampening the sound while at the sink.

To properly care for an Elkay Antique Copper Hammered finish sink, after each use, the homeowner should rinse the sink and dry it thoroughly with a soft cloth or towel. To clean the sink, homeowners should use a non-abrasive, non-detergent soap with a soft cloth and remember to rinse thoroughly with clean water and dry it.
