Copper Sinks – Your Guide to a Better Kitchen.
Back in June 1996, on a warm summery day, the IRA set off a 3000 pound bomb in the middle of Manchester city centre. Warning had spread about an hour before the blast so it had given police time to empty the centre and no one was seriously hurt. However, the bomb caused widespread devastation and had ruined a lot of buildings. One major Manchester landmark that had been effected was the Royal Exchange theatre, a grade II listed Victorian building.
My dad, now retired, worked in demolition and waste recycling and won the tender to clean up the centre including the Royal Exchange. There was a lot of stuff to remove from the building and bar a few rooms, my dad was goven full rein to recycle as much of the rubbish and rubble as possible. There was one room that was in disarray, and in the corner was an old Victorian copper sinks. My Dad was entranced by it and asked the contractors if he could keep it for his own, they agreed he could.
I finished work that evening and was surprised to see my Dad stood on my doorstep holding this big brass sink. He made me laugh stood there on his own, but when I saw the sink, it all made sense. My dad was helping with my kitchen refurbishment – and he knew I was still looking for a sink but I was thinking of a Belfast sink. Belfast kitchen sink As soon as I saw this copper sink, I knew he’d found it.
kitchen sink bowl Even though the sink was ancient, it looked as good as new and was incredibly beautiful. The inside of the bowl had a delicate symmetrical star motifs and rolled rim. It was had been made in France in the late 19th century, and it had aged amazingly well. It was fitted within a few weeks and now has pride of place in my kitchen. I never ever thought to look at copper sinks when it came to designing the interior of my kitchen, but I’m totally obsessed with them now. All my friends are envious of my sink and have found a copper sink stockists – they’re all the rage in my neck of the woods.
