The ball valve is designed with press-to-connect end connections with an inboard bead and EPDM O-ring for quick and easy copper to copper joinery. Properly applying pressure from a press-fit tool tightens the O-ring onto the tube, ensuring a clean, permanent, watertight seal in seconds, with no flame, solder or flux.

Through years of skill and experience passed down from previous generations, the end result is a one-of-a-kind work of art. Made from 16 gauge copper, this luxurious single large sink with a front apron has a warm antique finish and allows for either drop-in or undermount installation. A spacious 28" x 17" interior makes washing any dishes a breeze. It has a 3.5 inch drain for standard U.S. plumbing connections. Due to the handcrafted nature of this product, it will vary in appearance, finish, texture, hammering and other details. Dimensions may vary up to 1/2". We strongly suggest you receive the actual piece before making any installation cuts.Copper is amazingly easy to maintain. Fingerprints do not show as they will on stainless steel and other metals. For basic cleaning simply use a mild soap and water, other cleaners are not necessary. Copper has a "living finish" and its patina will continue to develop character over time, meaning it will become a richer, darker color. The patina creates a unique look of light and dark tones complementing each other. Made with the highest standards of quality and creative design, Novatto sinks add artful function and charm to any kitchen. Supreme packaging and boxing ensure damage-free delivery.
