Smooth Copper
in five patinas smooth is an option
The only patina we can not offer smooth copper in is antique. The hammering process is necessary to achieve the antique patina. Smooth copper is not necessary for surfaces. Our ball peen hammerheads are small and do not create an unpractical surface. The specific look is the only advantage to smooth copper. In fact hammering increases the durability of the copper and allows the copper to be shaped without cracking.
