Most of the people living here dedicates to the ancient tradition of the fabrication of hammered bathroom copper sinks of many sizes and models that just by the look makes the expectator think about sculptures being made for the enjoyment and use of people.

These mexican hammered bathroom copper sinks are all made of just one piece of a previously cut copper plate that is hammered and heated patiently in a wood fire until the desired shape is obtained and a brand new piece of copper art is out of the shop. But there is one more process that has to be applied to the bathroom copper sinks prior to its exhibition and sale.

This special process is called "patination" and it's applied under heat to the surface of the sink such that it will become protected and will acquire the particular color desired by the artisan. The process is kind of slow but the time that the artisan takes to make this beautiful sink is worth it, at the end a beautiful hammered bathroom copper sink will be born and it will maintain its surface color for many years to come without presenting any corrosion or aging on the copper sink's surface.
