Product Description
This old country hammered copper bathtub blends European farmhouse spirit with early American homestead character. A vivid verdigris green exterior—formed by natural oxidation or artisan aging—adds seafoam-blue depth reminiscent of antique roofs and fountains. Inside, the warm, hand-hammered basin shows gentle, irregular dimples that reveal traditional tooling and craft. More than a fixture, it is functional art: durable, soulful, and rich with story.

Shape and Silhouette
Both ends rise in a gentle arc to support shoulders and neck. The narrowed base keeps visual weight low, letting the tub read calm and composed from every angle.
Surface and Texture
The exterior wears a verdigris patina—artisan applied or naturally developed. Inside, soft hammer marks catch light, adding grip and tactile character while celebrating handwork. Verdigris brings turquoise-green depth that evolves with time, masking water spots and wear while adding heritage charm. The look nods to manor houses and historic fountains, delivering a statement finish for rustic, farmhouse, and vintage-inspired rooms. Learn more about oxidized copper bathtubs in our blog.
Bathtub Style Influences
A warm copper interior paired with an aged green shell bridges old-world craft and organic beauty. It flexes across rustic, farmhouse, and transitional interiors, adding earthy sophistication and a true artisan focal point.
Farmhouse and French Country: The verdigris tone and curved silhouette complement reclaimed wood, brushed metals, and linen textures—rustic elegance with lived-in warmth.
Tuscan and Hacienda: Set among clay tile, ironwork, and carved woods, the patinated surface becomes a soulful centerpiece with regional depth and character.
