Why Choose Copper?

Copper has been valued for centuries for its warmth, durability, and distinctive appearance. Unlike synthetic finishes or plated materials, solid copper develops a natural patina that reflects the life of the home, creating a finish that becomes more beautiful with age.

The material is also naturally antibacterial, making it a practical choice for hardworking kitchens while delivering an unmistakable sense of luxury and authenticity.

No two copper sinks will ever age in exactly the same way, ensuring your kitchen gains a truly individual centrepiece.

Handcrafted in England

Every Sussex Butler Sink is made using traditional fabrication techniques and carefully finished by hand.

At Proper Copper Design, we create enduring architectural pieces rather than mass-produced products. Each sink is crafted with the intention that it will serve, age, and be admired for decades to come.
