Mexican Artisans Set to Conquer the American Market Start a New Company Called Adobes Market

Copper, the 29th element, is believed to have been mined for about 5000 years now accompanying humanity and civilization through most of his great technological accomplishments. In modern times copper is an ever present element in the electrical and electronic industry. But that's not the only area of our modern lives where copper is present. Since ancient times Mexican artisans have used copper as a valuable material to fabricate beautiful and intrincate artisan works, among them there is one branch of artisans that combine practicality and art in their work. They are those dedicated to fabricate beautiful raw copper sinks in Santa Clara del Cobre in the Mexican state of Michoacan.

These sinks are fabricated entirely by hand using the same ancient techniques of their ancestors. Even gas is forbidden to heat and soften the metal, they use only charcoal in small fires in the shops and helped by their inseparable hammer artisans give life and form to the copper plates placed into the fire. But this is not all, after getting the desired shape, the sinks surface have to be treated so that they will last and look like new for many years. For this they use a process called patination which is done under heat and that gives the surface of the copper sinks their characteristic color and durability.

Many people may think that copper sinks are soft or fragile but that's not so. They are sturdy enough to substitute a regular, series made, stainless steel sink. It is sturdy enough that even bathtubs are fabricated entirely on copper. And due to the patination process they won't acquire a greenish color or get rusty as those old pennies that didn't have the luck of being patinated.

Adobes Market (http://www.copper-sinks-mexico.com) is the result of the efforts and merging of one of the most important shops in Santa Clara and the logistics and marketing resources of an entrepreneur firm in Guanajuato Mexico. Through this strategic merging the new company is working hard to enter and position itself in the American market offering prices that are among the best on the web and designs that have the original look of the authentic handmade copper sinks.
