Know before you buy
The 5-ply bonded construction alternates layers of stainless steel and aluminum. This design eliminates hot spots and ensures consistent, even heat distribution across the entire pan, which is essential for precise searing and browning.
Yes, the D5 stainless steel construction is fully compatible with all stovetops, including induction, gas, electric, and ceramic glass.
Absolutely. These skillets are oven and broiler safe up to 600°F, allowing you to easily transition from stovetop searing to oven finishing.
No, these pans are not dishwasher safe. To maintain the polished stainless steel finish and the integrity of the bonded construction, we recommend hand washing with warm, soapy water.
The deep-walled design provides extra capacity compared to standard skillets. This makes them particularly well-suited for tasks that involve liquids, such as simmering sauces, braising, or sautéing larger portions without splashing.
The flared edges are engineered for precision, allowing you to pour liquids, sauces, or pan drippings cleanly without spilling or dripping down the sides of the pan.
