They stack into each other for storage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e100% pure copper, solid all the way through.\u003c\/strong\u003e We asked Butte Copper Company directly and they confirmed it: no stainless core, no plating, no coating. That is worth saying because most so-called copper kitchenware is copper-plated stainless steel. It photographs the same, it wears through at the edges, and it never changes color. These change color. The shine dulls toward a warm brown with use, and that patina is the proof the metal is real.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHand wash only. Never the dishwasher: detergent and heat leave copper blotchy, and that is hard to undo. Half a lemon dipped in salt restores the shine in a minute. Letting them darken is equally fine.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUse them for dry goods. Flour, sugar, salt, spices, all perfect. Don't leave vinegar or citrus standing in them. Measure and pour, don't park it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCopper is naturally antimicrobial, which is one reason hospitals use copper door handles.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Butte Copper Company","offers":[{"title":"Set","offer_id":44904009465949,"sku":"DWE-9770","price":46.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0744\/5630\/1661\/files\/ShinyMeasuringCups.png?v=1786660068","url":"https:\/\/frontierorganics.store\/products\/butte-copper-company-copper-measuring-cups-shiny","provider":"Frontier Organics, Local Natural Provisions","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
