From Juice to Crystal: The Papine Works Copper Pot

The copper pot from the Papine Works, now on display at the UWI Museum.

Walk into the Aqueduct Exhibition and your eyes are immediately drawn to it. Sitting on a wooden pallet, battered and cracked, its surface mottled with rust and the dark residue of long-ago fires, this copper pot is one of the most telling objects we have put on display. It is not merely old. It is a witness.
