Why copper for water, brass for food

Copper — for water

Our copper bowls are made from 99.9% pure copper, never lined or coated, and are designed for water only. Copper helps keep bacteria from growing quickly between washings, with normal cleaning, so the water stays fresher between fills.

Brass — for food

Our brass bowls are the food bowls — solid brass with a smooth, non-porous surface that doesn't hold onto food residue and odors the way plastic can. One bowl for water, one for food, each in the metal made for the job.

PLEASE READ BEFORE PURCHASE

Brass is a living metal, and it changes. Your bowl will develop a patina — the color will deepen and warm, and the finish may dull or darken in places over time. That is tarnish, it is completely normal, and it is what real, uncoated brass is supposed to do. It is not a defect, and there is nothing wrong with your bowl.

Why it can happen quickly: our bowls are solid brass with no lacquer or coating, so the surface reacts with air, moisture and food straight away. Food acids, humidity, and even natural oils from handling can bring the patina on faster — sometimes within the first days of use. Every bowl ages at its own pace, and no two will ever look exactly alike. That is part of the beauty of a handcrafted piece.

It is safe: patina is a surface change only. It does not affect the bowl’s performance, and your bowl remains perfectly suitable for your pet’s everyday meals.

A quick clean brings back the shine: wash with warm soapy water after meals and dry well — drying is what keeps water marks and dulling at bay. For a deeper shine, use our Perfect Polish, then rinse and dry well. Most owners let the patina develop and love the character it gives the bowl; the choice is yours.

Always hand wash with warm soapy water before first use.

Because patina is a natural characteristic of solid brass — not a fault — we do not offer refunds or returns on bowls for tarnish or patina development.

Still feeding from plastic?

If your pet’s chin is showing dark specks, bumps or crusty patches, the food bowl is one of the first things worth looking at — it’s the surface the chin presses into at every meal. Plastic is porous at a microscopic level and scratches easily with daily use and washing, and those scratches can hold residue and bacteria that a normal wash doesn’t fully reach. No bowl is a treatment for chin acne, and we don’t claim this one is. What a bowl change can do is remove one rough, hard-to-clean surface from the list of suspects: solid brass is smooth and non-porous, with nothing for residue to hide in, and it can be cleaned thoroughly every time. The finish is hand-hammered; the surface your pet eats from is smooth, cleanable metal. If the spots become sore, swollen or widespread, that’s a vet visit, not a new bowl.

We wrote up the full picture in our guide, Cat chin acne and the bowl question.

A Note on Handcrafted Character

Because every AURORA bowl is hammered by hand, you may notice minor dents or texture variations; these are signs of genuine craftsmanship, not defects, and aren't eligible for refund or exchange.

Natural Patina

Brass develops a natural patina over time with use. This isn't a flaw; it's a sign of authentic, solid brass construction. A light polish with our Perfect Polish Cleaner will restore its original shine.

More Than a Food Bowl

Use AURORA for everyday dry or wet food, or set it out as a textured decorative brass accent in your kitchen or living space.

A Thoughtful Gift

For the pet parent who wants handcrafted character and an elevated, elegant feeding setup for their companion.

REFUND/EXCHANGE POLICY: For health and safety reasons, we are unable to offer refunds or exchanges.

AURORA is a hand-hammered food bowl made from solid brass for dogs and cats. Brass is non-porous and does not scratch like plastic, so food residue has fewer places to hide — one reason owners of chin-irritation-prone pets switch from plastic. Medium (32 oz) or Large (64 oz).
