What customers say
Customers view the Large Copper English Tub as a luxurious centerpiece defined by its stunning artisanal craftsmanship and unique hand hammered texture. The primary theme is exceptional quality, highlighted by the copper's superior heat retention, which supports deeply relaxing soaks and justifies the investment. While the tub delivers an unparalleled aesthetic wow factor, some friction exists regarding installation complexity due to its size and weight. Additionally, a minority of users express concern over the ongoing maintenance required to preserve the initial high polish finish. Overall, this tub is celebrated as a generational piece offering supreme artistic quality and functional satisfaction.
Know before you buy
The tub features a polished finish, but because it is crafted from pure copper, it will naturally develop a unique patina over time. If you prefer the bright, reflective look, you can periodically use a copper polish to maintain its original shine.
Yes, the pure copper construction is food-safe, making it a functional choice for washing vegetables or prepping ingredients. Just be sure to hand-wash and dry it thoroughly after use to maintain the integrity of the metal.
With a width of 17 inches, the tub can typically accommodate 3 to 4 standard wine bottles alongside a generous amount of ice. Its oval shape is specifically designed to maximize cooling space while remaining compact enough for a tabletop.
Yes, the brass handles are securely attached and designed for durability. However, we recommend supporting the base of the tub with one hand while carrying it when fully loaded to ensure stability and safety.
The polished copper finish is sensitive to prolonged exposure to outdoor elements like direct sunlight, humidity, and rain, which can cause accelerated oxidation or spotting. Keeping it indoors preserves the intended aesthetic and finish of the piece.
