    I am looking for a couple of old round,copper sinks. I have tried quite a few antique shops and salvage yards but I can't find any.Has anybody seen them for sale.

    Never heard of a sink made of copper.

    They were used in pubs at one time. Pretty much most of them are gone now.

    Chopper 6 and Whisky galore

    Thanks for your response. I can not even find a picture of an old one on the internet and I am unsure how to post a pic of the two I have myself as it seems you can only provide a web link pic. I would think you are right that most of them are gone as they are impossible to source, though someone told me that are in Belarus and I happen to know someone going out so maybe he can arrange shipment. They are for an art exhibition, and because they have such a distinct resonance to them, I really want to use the old ones. Thanks for the pub lead, I also heard doctors used them.
