Copper’s Resurgence
From sinks to countertops or simply decorative objects, coated copper is making a comeback as the new “it” metal. It can be used on doorknobs, bathroom fixtures and kitchen faucets, creating the perfect industrial chic style popular in recent years. (Think reclaimed wood or Restoration Hardware.) Some of the advantages of copper: It’s 100 percent recyclable and antimicrobial.
Keep In Mind: Copper is easily scratched, prone to dents and can tarnish over time, so take extra care of it in your home.
