Copper Kitchen Sinks - Copper Farmhouse Sinks

Copper kitchen sinks are a perfect way to add old world charm to your new world kitchen. Although typically used in country themed kitchen areas, the copper kitchen sink can be used in nearly any modern kitchen.

Copper kitchen sinks have a significant advantage over regular kitchen sinks because copper is naturally antibacterial. Bacteria and other germs can only live on copper for a couple of hours, vs. days for some other kitchen sinks. Copper kitchen sinks are typically found in the following configurations: drop in, under mounted and farmhouse / apron style. Drop in and under mounted copper kitchen sinks feature a lip or rim around the top of the sink, to allow them to sit on, or be mounted under your countertop. However, copper farmhouse sinks, or apron sinks as they are also known, feature a front apron panel that actually is made to stick out past the front of your cabinets, to expose the front part of the sink to the rest of your kitchen. Not only does this provide greater functionality for the copper kitchen sink but also adds to the visual aesthetic of your kitchen.

The reason copper farmhouse sinks are referred to as farmhouse sinks, is because that style of kitchen sink was often found in farmhouses and ranches throughout the 1800 and 1900’s.
