  • Solid Copper · Recessed · Made in the USA

    The Copper Shower Niche by Copper Shower Co. is a handcrafted, recessed storage solution designed to integrate seamlessly into copper shower surrounds and elevated bath environments. Fabricated from solid copper, this niche provides refined storage for bath essentials while adding warmth, depth, and natural character to the finished space.

    Designed for Copper Showers — and Beyond

    Originally designed to complement Copper Shower Co. shower systems, this niche is equally well-suited for tile, stone, and specialty wall applications where a premium recessed niche is desired.

    Available in standard sizes as well as custom dimensions, the Copper Shower Niche offers flexibility for residential, hospitality, and professional installations.

    Why Solid Copper?

    Copper is uniquely suited for shower environments due to its natural properties and long-term performance:

    Solid copper construction — not plated or coated
    Naturally antimicrobial surface for enhanced hygiene
    Moisture- and corrosion-resistant
    Develops a rich, evolving patina over time
    Exceptional lifespan compared to conventional materials

    The result is a recessed niche that is both highly functional and design-forward, ideal for luxury bathrooms, spa-inspired interiors, and indoor or outdoor showers.

    Do copper showers turn green?

    For indoor copper showers, the copper develops a beautiful antique patina over time with warm brown and bronze tones - not green. The green patina (verdigris) only forms on outdoor copper exposed to weather and moisture. Our interior shower kits develop an elegant, protective patina that enhances the copper's natural beauty and character.

    However, you have complete control over the appearance. You can choose pre-patinated finishes (light, medium, heavy, or rust) when ordering, or keep your copper shower polished to maintain its bright, shiny appearance. The entire enclosure can be easily removed and polished with copper cleaner at any time to restore the original look, then reinstalled.

    For outdoor copper shower kits, the copper may develop green tones over time when exposed to the elements - this is a natural, beautiful weathering process that protects the copper

    Are copper showers safe?

    Absolutely! Copper showers are completely safe and offer unique health benefits.

Copper is also non-corrosive and won't rust or deteriorate like some metals. Our patented copper shower kits meet all building codes and safety standards. The material is 100% recyclable and eco-friendly, making it safe for both your family and the environment.

    What tools do I need to install a copper shower kit?

    Our copper shower kits are designed for easy DIY installation with basic tools. You'll typically need standard construction tools such as a drill, screws, level and measuring tape. Detailed installation instructions are included with every kit, and we also provide installation videos on our website to guide you through the process step-by-step. If you have questions during installation, our team is available to provide support. Professional contractors will find the installation straightforward and much faster than traditional tile work.

    How do I clean and maintain my copper shower?

    Yes! Your copper shower kit is easy to maintain. First, its antimicrobial which means bacteria can not grow on it.  The entire enclosure can be removed at any time. Use a copper cleaner to polish the panels back to their original shine, then simply reinstall. If you just want to get water spots/finger prints off of the walls, use warm soapy water with a soft cloth to remove that.  Nothing abrasive! This flexibility makes copper showers incredibly easy to care for compared to permanent tile installations.
