Hi and welcome to Clayburn Copperworks.We are located in Abbotsford British Columbia Canada. 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.

Our 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.

Happy January and 2012!
Here’s hoping for a great new year. We here in Canada, where I’m at, are a lucky bunch and we sometimes take our good fortune for granted. Speaking of luck. It would be super lucky for me if you all needed more copper art!! Stay tuned for more web site improvements and other great stuff. As always, support your local artists.
Thanks,
Jim
