Copper Finishes
Cyprus Copper Designs offers several different finishes: a light, medium, or dark antique finish, a tiffany green or mint green patina, or a powder blue finish (other finishes are available upon request). These finishes are skillfully applied by hand and can react in varied ways. This results in a distinctive finish for every piece, creating a one of a kind work of art.
The following are some examples of the finishes that we offer.
There are several different coatings that can be applied to the finish. Most of the antique finishes, used for indoor purposes, receive a hand-buffed wax coating. This helps to maintain the finish and should be reapplied about twice a year for best results. The Tiffany green, Mint Green and Powder Blue patinas are coated with a matte sealer, this is a sprayed-on clear coat which seals in the desired finish.
For a natural finish, the copper will react depending on the environmental conditions it is exposed to, such as extensive moisture or coastal air conditions. This natural reaction adds to the allure and individuality of Cyprus Copper Designs' finished product. Each piece will take on its own personality once it settles into its new home.
To clean the copper, use a damp sponge or a soft cloth to dust the surface . Do not use any mild or harsh abrasives, as this will remove the desired finish.
