BC Designs Antique Copper Verdigris Green Boat Bath | Hand-Crafted Freestanding Bath BAC024
Nature's Most Beautiful Transformation, Captured in Copper
The BC Designs Antique Copper Verdigris Green Boat Bath is a masterpiece of artisan craft and natural beauty. Inspired by the aged copper spires and grand facades of Europe's most celebrated architecture, the Verdigris Green finish captures the breathtaking patina that pure copper develops over centuries — and recreates it through a meticulous hand-applied process that makes every bath a singular work of art.
Each bath is individually formed from 99.5% pure copper at a gauge of 15–18, using hand techniques unchanged for centuries. The result is a vessel of extraordinary depth and character, with the gentle undulations and subtle tonal shifts that are the unmistakable hallmark of true artisan craftsmanship. No two baths will ever be identical.
The Verdigris Finish
The exquisite antique finish begins with the application of sulfuric acid and chalk powder to the copper exterior, creating the aged antique base. The surface is then sealed with lacquer for lasting durability, before a hand-applied verdigris patina layer is added to the exterior — producing the rich, complex green tones that shift from deep forest to soft sage depending on the light. The effect is simultaneously ancient and utterly contemporary.
Superior Thermal Performance
Pure copper's exceptional thermal conductivity means your bath water stays warmer for longer than cast iron alternatives. Even after draining, the bath retains warmth to the touch — a small but deeply luxurious detail that elevates every bathing ritual.
