About the Product
This copper pot is made from pure copper by the master craftsmen of Gaziantep, 100% by hand. The interior is tin-lined, and the surface that contacts food is completely safe. Thanks to copper's exceptional heat conductivity, food cooks faster and more evenly at lower heat, and its flavor and nutritional value are preserved. Small variations from the handcrafting make each product unique.
Benefits of Copper Pots & Cooking Advantages
- After silver, copper is the best heat-conducting metal. It distributes heat evenly across the base and walls, so food cooks evenly throughout.
- Its high heat conductivity allows cooking at lower heat, which saves energy.

How Should the Product Be Cared for and Used?
- Wash by hand with liquid dish soap.
- Do not wash in a dishwasher.
- Never let it come into contact with bleach.
- After washing, dry with a soft cloth.
- Do not clean with hard scouring pads.
- Copper naturally oxidizes, which is not a defect but a normal condition. Keeping copper dry can slow down darkening. If it darkens, the exterior can be cleaned with metal cleaners.
- The interior 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.

- Copper products exposed to direct heat should be re-tinned periodically.
- Copper products not exposed to direct heat will not need re-tinning.
- Periodic re-tinning is recommended.
How Do I Know If the Tin Is Gone?
The tin coating on the interior of your copper product can wear away over time. If the silver color on the inside has disappeared and the reddish tone of the copper is clearly visible, or if patches have opened or peeled, the tin may have thinned or worn away. In this case, re-tinning of your product is recommended.
However, it is important to note:
Black spots or dark stains on the interior do not mean the tin is gone. This is usually a natural color change caused by use.
Does Copper Need Re-Tinning?
- Copper products exposed to direct heat should be re-tinned periodically (on average every 3-5 years).
- Copper products not exposed to direct heat will not need re-tinning.
- Water is not acidic, so it does not erode tin. Products such as water bottles, glasses and pitchers therefore 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 the human body needs. Tin-lined copper pots, pans and bottles used in everyday life are suitable for contact with food. In traditional production, the interior surface of copper products is tin-lined; this coating keeps copper from coming into direct contact with food.
However, please keep in mind:
Acidic foods (such as those with lemon, tomato paste or vinegar) are not recommended for long contact with unlined copper surfaces. 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 healthily for many years.
❌ Unlined and unmaintained products should not be preferred.
When produced by skilled hands, copper is both a safe and healthy choice.
