Gallery Three - MEXICAN COPPER ART Michoacan is the land of the Purepucha Indians, one of the two tribes that were never defeated by the Aztecs. Why? Because they had copper; thus, superior weapons of war. Today, all Mexican copper comes from Santa Clara de Cobre. It is no longer mined in Michoacan, but the coppersmiths are here, literally hundreds. Showcased in this gallery are samples of copper art (all high gauge). And, yes, we do customized bathtubs and copper topped tables to your size and specifications, including a selection of wrought iron table bases. And, we also do antique copper replicas.
