Copper naturally undergoes an oxidation process over time, which makes the metal turn black. In India, a mixture of salt and tamarind was enough to restore its beautiful colour, though tamarind is harder to find here. Here, you can restore the original appearance using lemon juice and salt, which you mix together and use with a soft sponge to clean the surface of the bottle. If that's not enough, add a little vinegar and continue. Finally, rinse thoroughly and dry. Do not wash in a dishwasher and do not use ordinary washing-up liquid to clean it!

Copper vessels in Ayurveda

Ayurveda views water from a copper vessel as one way to balance all three doshas – Vata, Pitta and Kapha. Storing water in a copper vessel acts as a purifying process for the water, thanks to copper's antibacterial and antimicrobial properties, which eliminate the formation of microorganisms and bacteria that could be present in the water. It also helps maintain the body's balanced pH. Drinking water from a copper vessel on an empty stomach in the morning is a traditional way to support metabolism and improve immune system function.

Warning: A change in colour is not a defect; it is a natural process of copper. Do not wash in a dishwasher. Do not use for hot or acidic drinks. Not recommended for people with copper metabolism disorders. The product is handmade, so minor imperfections such as scratches and stains are not grounds for a complaint.
