SERTODO

Sertodo Copper: Heirloom-Quality Handcrafted Copper Goods Since 1997

Sertodo Copper has been making the finest handcrafted copper goods in North America since 1997. With workshops in Austin, Texas and the legendary copper-crafting village of Santa Clara del Cobre, Michoacan, Mexico, every Sertodo piece is hand-hammered by master artisans using techniques passed down through generations. These are not decorative objects. They are tools for living, built to be used daily, to develop a rich patina over time, and to become heirlooms passed down through your family.

Why Copper?

Copper is one of the oldest materials used in human wellness and cooking. It is naturally antimicrobial, meaning it actively destroys bacteria and pathogens on contact. In Ayurvedic tradition, water stored overnight in a copper vessel, known as tamra jal, is believed to balance the body's three doshas and support digestion, immunity, and overall vitality. Modern science has confirmed copper's antimicrobial properties, making Sertodo's water dispensers and pitchers as functional as they are beautiful.

In the kitchen, copper's unmatched thermal conductivity gives professional chefs precise heat control that stainless steel and cast iron simply cannot match. And copper mixing bowls create a chemical reaction with egg whites that produces a more stable, voluminous foam, a technique used in professional pastry kitchens worldwide.

What Sertodo Makes

• Copper Mixing Bowls. Available in 1.5qt, 2.5qt, and 5qt sizes, Sertodo's best-selling mixing bowls are engineered for whipping eggs and mixing batters with professional results. The copper surface stabilizes egg white proteins for a higher, more consistent meringue every time.
• Copper Water Dispensers and Pitchers. The Gangotri Copper Water Pitcher, Niagara Copper Water Dispenser, and Arcadia Copper Drink Dispenser are rooted in the Ayurvedic tradition of copper-stored water. Beautiful on the counter, powerful for your wellness routine.
• Copper Cookware. The Alicante Copper Paella Pan, Copper Saute Pan, and Jam Pans are crafted from heavy-gauge copper with hot-tinned interiors and ergonomic handles for serious cooking performance.
• Barware and Entertaining. Moscow Mule Mugs, the Boston Copper Cocktail Shaker Set, Sharpshooter Shot Cups, and the Oyster Copper Serving Tray bring artisan craftsmanship to every gathering.
• Kitchen and Home. Copper Kitchen Canisters, Charger Plates, and serving pieces that develop a warm, living patina with every use.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Sertodo copper food safe?
Yes. Sertodo's cookware uses hot-tinned interiors which create a food-safe barrier between the copper and your food. Their mixing bowls and water vessels are unlined pure copper, which is safe for direct contact with water, eggs, and most foods.

How do I care for my Sertodo copper piece?
Hand wash with mild soap and dry immediately. Over time, copper develops a natural patina, a sign of authentic, living copper. To restore shine, use a mixture of lemon juice and salt. Never put copper in the dishwasher.

Does copper water actually have health benefits?
Copper is an essential trace mineral, and water stored in copper vessels does absorb small amounts of copper ions. Ayurvedic medicine has used this practice for thousands of years. Store water in your copper pitcher overnight and drink first thing in the morning for the full traditional benefit.

Where is Sertodo copper made?
Every piece is handcrafted in either Austin, Texas or Santa Clara del Cobre, Michoacan, Mexico, a village with a 500-year copper-crafting tradition recognized by UNESCO.
