Know before you buy
The hot-tinned interior provides a naturally non-stick surface that is free from synthetic chemicals like PFOAs. It is a traditional, food-safe lining that offers excellent release properties while remaining durable enough to last for years with proper care.
To maintain the finish and performance, wash the pan by hand using warm, soapy water and a soft cloth. Always dry it thoroughly immediately after washing to prevent water spots or oxidation on the copper exterior.
Yes, the patented handle design is specifically engineered with a notch that allows you to rest a spoon or the lid securely while cooking. This helps keep your workspace organized and prevents the lid from sliding off the counter.
Yes, the 2mm heavy-gauge copper provides the ideal balance of heat responsiveness and thermal mass. It heats up quickly and distributes that heat evenly across the entire surface, which is essential for precise tasks like sauce reduction or searing.
The pan features stainless steel countersunk rivets that sit flush against the interior wall. This creates a smooth, snag-free surface that prevents food from getting trapped, making the pan much easier to wipe clean than those with traditional protruding rivets.
No, this solid copper pan is not compatible with induction cooktops. It performs best on gas, electric, or radiant heat surfaces.
