Our copper sinks are hand-made in Santa Clara del Cobre, Michoacán, Mexico. The Log Furniture Store buys directly from different families of artisans in the village of Santa Clara del Cobre. We carefully select work for the beauty of the design and for high quality craftsmanship. Some pieces we sell are signed by the artisans and are limited editions.
History
Santa Clara del Cobre (copper) is the foremost site in Mexico, perhaps in the world, for the fabrication of hammered copper vessels. The artisans from Santa Clara have been invited to teach their craft and exhibit their work in museums and galleries around the world. The family of artisan Bricio Pureco Farfán was recently featured on the PBS special “The Desert Speaksâ€.
