Description
The Forge is our double-bowl farmhouse kitchen sink — raised entirely from solid copper, hand-seamed, and built for a lifetime of daily use. The two bowls are separated by a low copper divider, useful for keeping a soaking pan out of the way of the working side.
Made in Kent
Sheet copper, sixteen gauge, is cut, formed, and seamed by hand into two equal bowls. The interior seams are hand-brazed at nine hundred degrees, filed smooth, and polished so they disappear into the metal. The apron front is flared by hand over a hardwood mould and finished flush.

For daily use
Copper is naturally antimicrobial, which is why we like it in a kitchen. It also patinates in interesting ways — every scratch, drop, and splash becomes part of the surface. The Forge is finished unsealed on purpose: the sink will look better in five years than it does today.
Care
Warm water and a soft cloth. Never abrasive cleaners, wire wool, or lemon juice. If a spot of green verdigris appears, wipe it with a damp cloth — it is just copper doing its work. For a full re-polish, the sink can come back to Kent at any time.
