Copper Splashback | Volcanic Earth
This copper splashback is custom made to order and finished in our Volcanic Earth patina, defined by rich copper warmth and deep, mineral oxidation. Crafted from a premium architectural-grade copper, each panel is a living statement piece of functional art, offering deliberately expressive, non-uniform character.
Best for: high-impact focal points, recessed splashbacks behind gas ranges or feature walls in dark, moody kitchen designs.
European craftsmanship
Our Volcanic Earth patina is achieved through a meticulous, multi-stage oxidation process. By manually accelerating the natural aging of the metal and then selectively sanding it back, we reveal a depth of colour that would otherwise take years to develop.
Every panel is finished by hand, ensuring no two pieces are ever identical.
Finish character
Volcanic Earth patina features dark, mottled oxidation, which contrasts with exposed copper highlights, producing a surface that changes subtly with light and viewing angle. This finish prioritises texture, contrast, and material presence over uniformity.

How to install
Our panels bond directly to drywall, wood, or existing tiles using standard construction adhesive. No mechanical drilling or fastening is required. Please refer to our Installation & Technical Guide for full instructions.
Care
Initial Seal: Your panel arrives protected by a professional museum-grade wax barrier.
Maintenance: To stop the aging process, reapply wax every 6–12 months depending on intensity of use.
The Patina: For a more "industrial-modern" look, leave the metal untreated to allow natural darkening. Please refer to Our metals guide for more information.
Cleaning: Avoid harsh chemicals. Use only soap and warm water, followed by a soft, dry microfiber cloth.
