Fallen Leaves copper bottles are made of 98% Copper and 2% Zinc and we use anti-microbial quality copper. Pure copper is too soft to be used for making bottles, the 2% Zinc gives it tensile strength hence our bottles are strong and durable. Also, all our bottles are made from recycled copper.
Our bottles are designed to only store water. Please do not store any acidic drinks like juices, tea, coffee etc. as it can react with the copper. We also do not recommend storing hot water in the bottle as copper is a heat conductor and could cause burns.

Copper has the natural tendency to oxidise and form a natural layer of Patina. Using your hands, rub a mixture of lemon juice, salt and water on the surface of the bottle. Rinse after 10-15 minutes and dry with a clean cloth to prevent water spots from appearing. Same mixture can be used to clean the inside of the bottle.

Our bottles are made of 98% anti-microbial Copper and 2% Zinc. The copper used is non-toxic in nature and after the water has been left to store in the bottle for 6-8 hours or overnight, a very small trace of copper ions dissolve in the water, which is well below the permissible levels set by WHO(2mg/L). Please do not drink water that's been stored in the bottle for more than 12 hours. We also believe that human body likes everything in moderation, so we recommend taking a 4 week break from using your copper bottle every 3 months. Use as recommended.
