Pure Copper Water Bottle — 34 oz / 1 litre
A hand-hammered bottle in pure copper, made in India, for people who keep a bottle on the desk all day and would rather it were an object than a piece of plastic. Storing drinking water in copper is a long-standing Ayurvedic household practice — the vessel is filled overnight and the water drunk in the morning. Whether you come to it for the tradition or simply for a bottle that looks good and lasts, it does the job.
Key features
- Pure copper with a hand-hammered finish — no two are identical
- 34 oz / 1 litre capacity
- Leak-proof screw lid
- No inner lining, no lacquer, no plastic
- Handmade in India
- Fits most car cup holders and gym bag pockets
What to put in it
- Plain drinking water, cold or room temperature.
- Not lemon water, juice, fizzy drinks or buttermilk — acidic liquids react with copper.
- Not boiling water.
Care and cleaning
- Rinse with warm water after use and air-dry with the cap off.
- Every week or two, rub the inside and outside with half a lemon dipped in salt, then rinse well. Tamarind paste works the same way.
- Not dishwasher safe. Do not use abrasive scourers.
- Copper darkens with use — that patina is normal, and a lemon-and-salt clean brings the shine back.
Important information
This is a copper drinking vessel, not a medical or therapeutic device. Copper is a trace mineral the body needs only in small amounts, so use it for your daily drinking water rather than for every liquid you consume. Follow the guidance above on what to store in it.
Is there anything I shouldn't put in it?
Yes. Keep it to plain drinking water. Acidic liquids — lemon water, juice, fizzy drinks, buttermilk — react with copper and should not be stored in it. Copper is a trace mineral the body needs only in small amounts, so a copper bottle is for your daily water, not for every drink you have.
How do I clean a copper bottle?
Rinse with warm water after each use and let it air-dry with the cap off. Every week or two, cut a lemon, dip it in salt and rub the inside and outside, then rinse well. Tamarind paste works the same way. Do not put it in a dishwasher and do not use abrasive scourers.
Can I drink hot water in a copper bottle?
While it is fine to fill your copper water bottle with warm water, we recommend against filling it with hot or boiling water. Hot/boiling water can negatively affect your bottle.
How to identify a pure copper bottle?
Try sticking a small magnet to the bottle. If the magnet fails to stick, that points to copper rather than a plated or mixed metal. Colour is the other giveaway: unlike the grey of most metals, real copper has a distinctive reddish-brown tone and a subtle matt shine.
The colour is changing — is that a fault?
No, that is copper doing what copper does. Pure copper develops a darker patina over weeks of use, especially where it is handled. A lemon-and-salt clean brings the shine back. A bottle that never tarnishes at all is usually lacquered or plated rather than pure.
