Handcrafted in Santa Clara del Cobre
Third-generation coppersmith Juan Carlos Hernández shapes each panel with rhythmic hammer strikes, fire-aging the surface until the patina glows with warm brown undertones. Third-generation coppersmith Juan Carlos Hernández brings each copper bathtub to life from raw sheet to finished heirloom. In the heart of Santa Clara del Cobre, Mexico—a town renowned for its centuries-old metalworking traditions—Juan Carlos shapes each panel by hand using rhythmic hammer strikes passed down through generations. He fire-ages the copper surface over open flame, coaxing rich, reddish-brown undertones and subtle green oxidations that deepen over time. The result is a living finish, warm and textured, that reflects both heritage and handmade artistry in every piece.
Artisan Testimony
“My family has hammered copper for over a century. Every strike follows the beat of my grandfather’s mallet, turning raw metal into a vessel of comfort and history.”

Ideal Bathroom Design with This Bathtub
A bathroom designed around this antique hammered copper bathtub thrives in a space that balances rustic warmth with understated elegance. Natural materials such as reclaimed wood, stone, and terracotta floors beautifully complement the tub’s rich, textured surface. Walls painted in warm neutrals—such as soft beige, muted olive, or creamy taupe—enhance the copper's natural patina, while matte black or oil-rubbed bronze fixtures offer subtle contrast without overpowering the organic aesthetic. Large windows that invite natural light help highlight the hand-hammered texture, emphasizing the artistry of the piece. A freestanding floor-mounted faucet in a dark finish maintains the tub's vintage character. To complete the setting, add woven textiles like Turkish cotton towels, an antique vanity with a stone countertop, and simple greenery such as a potted olive tree. This bathtub also fits seamlessly into transitional designs that blend rustic materials with contemporary simplicity, allowing its sculptural form to shine in either a farmhouse retreat or a Tuscan-inspired spa bathroom.
