Pure copper mug with floral pattern on the rim – 300 ml

Since ancient times, Ayurveda has advocated the benefits of drinking water from copper drinking vessels. Ayurveda states that storing water in a copper bottle or cup for 8-10 hours has a balancing effect on the three bio-energies (doshas) that circulate in the human body (Vata: the air element, Pitta: the fire element and Kapha: the water element). In addition, water in copper drinking vessels naturally becomes alkaline, which helps maintain a balanced pH level. Read more here.

Copper changes colour over time due to natural oxidation. This is called patina. The material may also develop spots. These are the natural properties of copper and have no negative effect on drinking from a copper object. Pure copper reacts with oxygen, water and residual substances in water, such as sulphur. This means the object has a high copper content and is effective at purifying water. The change in colour on the inside is not harmful. If the discolouration becomes excessive, you can clean the bottle, jug, water container or cup.

Copper drinking vessels are suitable only for water, not for milk, citrus juices or acidic liquids.

Do not wash in the dishwasher. Clean with natural soap, a soft sponge and room-temperature water. Keep away from direct sunlight.

Our unique copper drinking bottles, jugs, water containers and cups have been handmade in India for centuries. Because they are handmade, each piece is unique and may therefore differ slightly from the photograph. Imperfections in the material may also occur: this is part of the natural properties of copper.
