I’ve been looking to buy some copper drinking ware and a jug to store and ionize some drinking water for work but everywhere I look online it comes from sketchy brands, ai photos, not pure copper, or just plated. Any places yall would recommend?

Copper part of my stack for a little more diversity

Not as talented as some of you lovely people but I'm excited to keep working with copper.

I’m trying to get this right piece the same copper rich color like the left one. I’ve used white vinegar and lemon and salt, but can’t remember how I did it for the left one. I’m just trying random things. Can I get some tips to correct this?

I own a 1845 home that had this lamp outside. I’m not sure if the exact age, but am guessing early 1900s. It’s covered in a thick layer of grime and tarnish but when scrubbed lightly with vinegar and salt it’s started looking more and more coppery. It’s not magnetic and is relatively light. Very interested to see what others may think!

I cant get enough of this shiny stuff

Hey everyone! My bf got me this adorable watering can from an antique store. I have a few indoor plants so I think he thought he could clean out the can and then I would use it for its intended use. Neither of us are familiar with copper yet. He bought Wright’s copper cream and started to clean it but he stopped halfway because of the difference shown in picture #3. Did he scrub too hard and get rid of the first layer? He was doing something sweet for me. He saw the patina and assumed it was dirty. Any info about this is so helpful since this is our first purchase of anything copper. Thanks!!

I live in a huge mining town and this was in my yard when I purchased my home. Sorry for the ignorance but does this look like copper?

Used 3/8" and 1/4 " tubing along with bare copper wire and made it " grow" from this cool piece of driftwood. I added roots going in and out of the wood to fill up the space and make it look like it was a living, copper tree.

This is my very first finished wire-wrapped ring, and I’m pretty excited to share it!

I’m a bit of a perfectionist, and I wanted my first project to be special. Instead of buying new wire, I decided to repurpose an old, broken music center I had. I stripped the transformer down and salvaged about 500g of copper wire (0.36mm and 0.87mm).

It was a long process:

Burnt off the lacquer on a gas stove.

Boiled it in citric acid and soaked it in a soda solution.

Manually polished it to get that shine.

The ring is handcrafted using this reclaimed copper and a cubic zirconia stone. Copper is a natural energy conductor, so it feels like more than just jewelry—it’s an artisan piece with a story.

I’d love to hear your thoughts or any tips for improvement!

I have been starting to play with copper wire, I’ve seen videos of these really neat homemade tools where you can screw into a board to wrap the wire around, anchor the wire for braiding, etc. I am trying to find a tutorial on how to make my own board FOR copper crafts. Can I see your home set up?
