Design & Features
Raised ends and a centered well create ergonomic lounging for two. The tapered body balances visual lightness with stability, while the reinforced base adds classic definition. Ring handles introduce a functional nod to Mexican colonial vessels, and uniform hammering scatters light to soften reflections across the patina.
Structure & Proportions
Curved end walls support reclining at either side. The wide upper opening maximizes bathing room; the narrowed lower body conserves space. Crisp seams and even wall thickness reflect expert planishing and welding.
Material & Finish
Formed from 16-gauge copper, then fire-aged to a controlled antique brown with amber undertones. Subtle tonal variation and darker halos at hardware points indicate natural oxidation, not artificial dyeing.
