These unique copper drinking bottles are handmade in India. Each bottle is therefore unique and may vary slightly from the photo. When using the bottle for the first time, we recommend rinsing it a few times.

Copper drinking bottles (tamba) have been made and used in India for over 200 years. According to ancient Indian Ayurveda, drinking water from a copper bottle helps balance the three energies circulating through the human body, the doshas (Vata—air element, Kapha—water element, and Pitta—fire element). These bottles are only suitable for water. Not for milk, citrus fruits, or acidic liquids.

Cleaning and maintenance instructions

• Do not wash in the dishwasher
• Clean with natural soap, soft sponge and water at room temperature
• To make the copper shine, use lemon wedges or copper polish
• Do not expose to direct sunlight

NB: Copper discolors over time due to oxidation. The material may also develop stains. These are both natural properties of copper and do not negatively affect drinking from a copper bottle like this one. The bottles may also have imperfections, which are part of copper's natural properties.
