Selected products are lab-tested, with applicable testing and certification details provided on their individual product pages.

Yes. Copper, brass and Kansa naturally develop a patina over time. This is a characteristic of traditional metals, not a flaw.
-
Each metal needs specific care. Use the care instructions provided with your product and avoid harsh or abrasive cleaners.
-
Handcrafting preserves the material knowledge and workmanship built through 60+ years of family experience, while giving every piece its own character.
-
With proper use and care, traditional metalware is made for long-term use. Its finish may evolve naturally as the piece ages.

-
Tin-lined copper and brass pieces are designed with a tin coating on the food-contact surface. If the tin lining wears over time, re-tinning may be required. Veda offers several copper and brass products with tin coating.
-
We recommend hand washing your traditional metalware. Avoid abrasive scrubbers, and dry pieces promptly after washing to help prevent water spots and tarnishing.
