Hand-Made Mexican Hammered Copper Bathtubs From Adobes Market

Mexican Hammered Copper Bathtub

 Adobes Market is a company in Mexico specializing in hand-made copper bathtubs and sinks.They are based in the state of Michoacan,where their gifted artisans create these rustic hammered copper tub masterpieces. The heat patinated tubs which have a thick copper plate stand up well to water and general wear and tear.

Hammered copper dates back to Pre-Columbian Mexico, and pieces are made essentially the same way as back then. Copper is melted over a wood fire, created metal sheets which are then hammered by hand.

 Prices range from about US $4000 - $6000, which is not bad at all, considering that you are getting hand-crafted pieces.
