The Oldcopper Website
After a lifetime of working with industrial copper and copper alloys, Vin
Callcut is working on a different subject - domestic copper and brass. It
aims to cover items made mostly during the period 1851-1951, following the
period covered by most of the books on antiques
that range up to
about 1850. After this date there was an increasing emphasis on quantity
production of good designs.
This website shows some of the work done so
far and asks for helpful comments.

(The ankh, above right, is the sign chosen by Greek philosophers to represent
copper. It is based on the Egyptian hieroglyph meaning 'eternal life'.)
