Copper obsession

Copper is one of the most beautiful materials and is also one of my favourites. But for the last couple of years it has become a popular trend material for all kind of products and applications. Look at the lates suggestions by designers:

 'Copper Mirror Series' by Norwegian-born, London-based designers Amy Hunting and Oscar Narud. 
"inspired by the visual language and movement of the different elements of the solar system".

Decor Walther Living and Bathroom accessories 

These are my favourites from the above collection: countertop copper soap dish and liquid soap dispenser

 But I am fascinated also with this set of two low tables made of copper and Carrara marble -Levels by  a Beirut based design studio david/nicolas:

Last Stool designed by Max Lamb

And a few facts about copper by Discipline:

What you probably didn’t know is that copper patina is not related to damages or corrosion but in fact it is simply the settling of molecules to a more stable order. The Statue of Liberty was initially sprayed with a vinegar solution in order for it to obtain itsverdigris (the green pigment). Verdigris actually protects copper—once verdigris sets in, the copper will never corrode.A good and natural way to stirs up the molecules of copper to a state of chaos – and consequently make your copper shine again – is to use a special paste made in equal parts of kosher salt and ketchup.

Interesting, isn't it? I have numerous posts with a wide variety of application of copper.
