Explore Abbotsford: See The Clayburn Copperworks

By August 13, 2013Explore Abbotsford

Clayburn Copperworks offers a glimpse into our past as a community and a glimpse into our past as people. An educational and entertaining day trip.

A brief history of copper tells us that man first used copper over 10,000 years ago. Copper has been used for many things through out the ages, from decorative objects to cooking utensils. Now of course copper is used in plumbing, electrical components, wire and a stack of modern uses.

The statue of liberty in New York city is made with a skin of copper. Here at Clayburn Copperworks our history does not go back quite that far, but we have been around for a number of years. Here in the shop, we make all our pieces by hand. Of course modern tools such as torches, bending and shaping tools and the like, have made the work a little less demanding, the process of coaxing an object or piece of art out of sheets of copper has not changed a whole lot in many years.

The products here at Clayburn Copperworks range from outdoor fountains and sculptural pieces to indoor wall hangings. Custom work is always welcome and we can provide services from design to installation.
