WHY COPPER?
Copper is one of the oldest metals in history, discovered 10,000 years ago and used as a precious metal by ancient civilizations. The discovery of copper introduced the Chalcolithic Age or Copper Age, in which civilizations transitioned from using stone to metals to produce tools. Initially used for coinage and ornament by the earliest civilizations, throughout time copper has been used extensively due to its versatility and different properties in the fields of architecture, technology, industrial design, etc.
Copper has a unique interaction with its environment. Copper develops a patina which is a tarnish that forms on the surface of the material over time. Patinas provide an extra protective layer to copper and a unique aesthetic. The interaction of the user and the different environments will create a unique patina that will reflect the journey of those unique conditions.
