For some of you Oxygen is the devil in disguise that hides itself from plain sight, stalking its helpless prey with ease & within months turning your wonderful Pinkish-Orange Copper into a disastrous tacky coloured mess!. Yet for some of us, it is a god sent angel that wisps through the house painting an array of original & fascinating colour schemes on the surface of our copper bathroom products without us lifting a finger. One of its most seductive aspects is the feelings of warmth it exudes when added to a bathrooms landscape.

Architects for centuries have been fascinated by its trademark green patina that occurs naturally as it oxides over time. As the oxidation process starts to take its course naturally (or in some cases a few rubs with the hands daily may ‘assist’ the natural oxidation) it begins to take on its own fascinating array of colours. This unpredictability allows the shower arm & the rose to take on their own distinct characteristics that share a story from the beginnings of its humble installation.

What’s particularly popular at the moment is having a copper shower rose as your outdoor shower in the backyard. This is the ideal environment for oxidation, immersing itself deep into the fabric of your backyards profile. In respect to your bathroom, Copper certainly appeals to those looking for an industrial style theme throughout their home. If this appeals to your sense of design, then come in and see the shower set for yourself on display with copper readily available from companies such as Vola, Brodware, Astra Walker & CB Ideal.
