Simple Tips For Decorating With Copper
Finer and more attractive than iron, less expensive and easier to work with than silver, copper became the leading metal for decorative ornamentation during the American Arts and Crafts movement. Copper decorative wares such as hand-hammered lamps, chargers and candlesticks are iconic collectibles now, but copper is and was an ideal metal for architectural use. Copper sheeting is perfect for crafting the best downspouts, half-round gutters, and flashing. Copper is particularly adept at straddling the line between function and art. At Craftsman Farms, you can find stunning, motto-embossed fireplace hoods that are among the era’s most memorable works.
Considered the oldest metal in use, copper is enjoying renewed popularity. These days copper can be found almost everywhere in and around the house, from reproduction copper and mica lamps to copper basins that can be used in either the pantry or the garden. Copper is still fondly associated with the objets d’art of the original movement and is used in many of the beautiful reproduction available today. But the use of copper for functional items like range hoods, sinks, lighting, and architectural trim continues to be far more persuasive today than it was a hundred years ago.
The most popular place for copper is in the kitchen, especially in the form of hammered copper sinks. These sinks are crafted out of heavy-gauge copper and then chemically patinated to stabilize the finish. For a dramatic look, choose a copper range or fireplace hood.
Copper also adds a smart touch to faucets and decorative hardware. In most cases, brass and bronze fittings are finished with a chemically applied coppery hue. Copper is a fairly soft metal. If left on its own, it will develop an attractive patina or coloration with age. Unfortunately, fingerprints and other human contact will make it blotchy and unattractive. That’s why patination is always recommended, a stable coating that creates the look of age.
Copper is a wonderful medium for decorative lamps and light fixtures, especially when treated to hand hammering and patination by a real artist. It can be paired with mica or art glass for a beautiful result. For today’s reproduction vases, chargers, and other tabletop accessories, you can easily find a hammered finish, but remember that some work is better than others. The Michoacán region in Mexico is considered a great source of affordable hand-worked copper. If you want to look closer to home, you can find artisans who imbue their own sense of the Arts and Crafts spirit in chargers, candlesticks, and vessels that often closely copy period originals. Other branch out in other directions, such as Repoussé, which is a hand-worked and hand-tooled technique that creates more figural, three-dimensional results and requires a superior level of craftsmanship.
Copper is also wonderful in the garden, as copper basins make excellent birdbaths and fountains. Copper is also great in the water-channeling devices known as rain chains, which have channeled and stored rain water for hundreds of years. Frank Lloyd Wright, for instance, incorporated a sculptured rain chain in one of his Usonian houses. In any garden, these long linear skeins of rings, inverted bells, or fluted cups are certainly both useful and beautiful.
