Copper Farmhouse Sinks: Choosing the Perfect Patina for Your Dream Kitchen

Copper Patina Options are Unlimited at Rachiele

Professional patina artists have often inquired about the secret behind the vibrant colors and rich textures of our patina finishes. The truth remains a closely guarded secret, a little piece of magic unique to our craft. However, it's worth noting that back in the early 2020's, I embarked on a journey of extensive experimentation with patinas. At the time, I was blissfully unaware of the commercial products available for achieving patina effects on copper. This led me to explore and innovate with unusual solutions, which ultimately contributed to the unique and captivating results we are known for today. My solutions are quite different from the mainstream offerings.  While we occasionally incorporate a commercial product to achieve certain aspects of a patina, such usage is the exception rather than the rule here.  Our patinas are a testament to our commitment to craftsmanship, artistry, and the belief that every detail in your home should be a reflection of your unique style and personality. These processes can take from several days to well over a week to get to the point that we can take an initial photo to show you for your review. Our process is truly unique to our industry - just as unique as your sink will be! To truly appreciate the breadth and beauty of our patinas, I invite you to watch the short video above that showcases our work over the years.
