The P'urhépecha people of the region were among the most advanced metalworkers of the pre-Hispanic world, and many of today's coppersmiths are their descendants.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe traditional process is slow: the metal is heated, hammered, cooled and heated again, over and over, until the form is right. Each small dimple is the mark of a single hammer strike, which is why no two Thompson pieces are ever exactly alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCommon Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat can I use a trough sink for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA long, narrow sink is ideal as a second sink on an island or bar: rinsing vegetables, filling pots and vases, or filling it with ice to chill drinks when you entertain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWill the finish change over time?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, and that's part of its charm. Aged copper is a living finish, so it slowly develops a natural patina with use. Regular gentle cleaning keeps it even, and a coat of wax now and then helps protect it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDo I need a professional installer?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThompson recommends that all of its sinks are installed by a licensed professional, following Thompson's installation guide (linked above). If your installer has questions about cutouts or support, we can get answers from Thompson for you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy might my sink look a little different from the photos?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach piece is made by hand, so size, texture and color vary slightly from piece to piece and from the photos. Those small differences are the signature of handmade work, not a defect.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eCalifornia Proposition 65 warning: this product can expose you to lead, which is known to the State of California to cause cancer and reproductive harm.
