Advantages of the Copper Serving Tray
- The craftsmanship of the engraved copper tray gives each tray its own distinct character; it is completely different from mass-produced products.
How Should the Product Be Cared for and Used?
- Wash by hand with liquid dish soap.
- Do not machine wash.
- Never let it come into contact with bleach.
- After washing, dry with a soft cloth.
- Do not clean with abrasive sponges.
- Due to the nature of copper, copper-colored products can oxidize, and this is not a defect but a normal occurrence. Protecting copper from moisture may slow down darkening. If darkening occurs, the exterior can be cleaned with metal cleaners.
- The inside of tin-lined products may take on the color of food depending on use. Cleaning with baking soda is recommended.
- For long-lasting use, wash your copper products by hand with a soft sponge and mild detergent, and keep them dry. Do not expose them to very high heat.
How Do I Know If the Tin Is Gone?
The tin lining on the inside surface of your copper product may wear away over time. If the silver tone on the inner surface has disappeared and the reddish tone of the copper is clearly visible, or if there are areas of opening or peeling, the tin may have thinned or worn away. In this case, re-tinning of your product is recommended.
However, it is important to note in particular:
Black spots or dark stains on the inner surface do not mean the tin is gone. This is usually a natural color change caused by use.
Do Copper Products Need to Be Re-Tinned?
- Copper products exposed to fire should be re-tinned periodically (on average every 3-5 years).
- Copper products not exposed to fire will not need to be re-tinned.
- Water is not acidic, so it does not erode tin; for this reason, products such as flasks, glasses and carafes do not need re-tinning.
Is Copper Poisonous?
No, copper is not poisonous.
Copper products that are properly made and properly used are safe.
Copper is a mineral essential to the human body. Tin-lined copper pots, pans and flasks used in daily life are suitable for contact with food. In traditional production, the inside surface of copper products is tinned; this coating controls the direct contact of copper with food.
However, the following should be noted:
Acidic foods (such as those containing lemon, tomato paste or vinegar) are not recommended for prolonged contact with an untinned copper surface. For this reason, quality production and regular tin maintenance are important.
In summary:
✔️ Tin-lined and properly made copper products are safe.
✔️ With proper use and care, they can be used safely for many years.
❌ Untinned and uncared-for products should not be preferred.
When produced by skilled hands, copper is both a safe and a healthy choice.
