Know before you buy
Yes, copper is a reactive metal that will naturally develop a patina over time. To maintain its original shine, you should hand wash the ladle with mild soap and use a copper-specific polish periodically to remove any tarnish.
While copper is excellent for heat conduction, it can react with highly acidic ingredients. We recommend using this ladle primarily for serving rather than leaving it submerged in acidic stews for extended periods to prevent potential discoloration or metallic flavor transfer.
The engraved handle is designed to provide a tactile grip, though it is primarily aesthetic. At 16 inches long, the handle offers excellent leverage, making it easy to maneuver even when serving from deep stockpots.
No, this ladle should be hand washed only. The dishwasher's high heat and harsh detergents can damage the hammered finish and cause the copper to lose its luster prematurely.
The 16-inch length is quite generous, making it ideal for deep Dutch ovens, stockpots, and large serving bowls. It provides plenty of reach, ensuring your hands stay safely away from hot steam while serving.
