About this product

Water tastes like water again, from a bottle built to last for years.

A 950 ml (32 oz) water bottle hand-made in India from pure copper with a hammered finish. No plastic liner, no coating, no steel core. Copper keeps water feeling cool and does not hold onto flavors the way plastic does.

Storing drinking water in copper is an Ayurvedic practice thousands of years old; water left overnight in a copper vessel is called tamra jal. Copper is also naturally antimicrobial, which is why hospitals fit copper door handles. We make no health claims for the bottle beyond that it is copper all the way through.

Who this is for

  • You are getting plastic out of your kitchen and off your desk
  • You want a bottle that will not sweat, crack or smell after a year
  • You follow Ayurvedic practice or are curious about it
  • You want a gift that looks like it cost more than it did

How to use

Rinse before first use. Fill with plain water only; no juice, citrus or carbonated drinks, which react with copper. Hand wash, never the dishwasher. When the inside darkens, and it will, scrub with a little salt and half a lemon, rinse, and it is bright again. The outside develops a natural patina over time.

CopperCulture bottles are hand-crafted by artisans in India, where copper drinkware has been made the same way for centuries.
