We are so excited to announce our new line of antique copper barware! A beautiful combination of our former bronze equipment and rose copper bar tools, this new copper collection has a major advantage over our previous copper version: It’s dishwasher safe!
We are thrilled to offer a classic, timeless look for your home bar or professional bar and restaurant– but with the ease of being able to wash them in the dishwasher.
That’s right, no more hand washing to preserve that beautiful polished finish on your copper bar sets! Save time while maintaining that sophisticated look you’re going for. Our stainless steel barware still offers the same high-quality of essential tools– but now with an antique polished copper finish.
