Know before you buy
The tin lining is naturally non-stick and offers excellent heat conductivity, allowing for precise temperature control. Unlike stainless steel, it is a traditional choice that provides a superior release for delicate foods, though it requires gentle care to maintain its integrity.
Hand wash the pan with mild soap and a soft sponge to protect the tin lining and the exterior finish. Avoid abrasive scrubbers or the dishwasher, and periodically use a copper polish if you wish to maintain the original luster of the hammered exterior.
No, this pan is made of solid copper, which is not magnetic and therefore will not work on induction cooktops. It is designed for use on gas, electric, and ceramic glass ranges.
The patented ergonomic handle is designed for comfort and balance, but it also features a clever notch that allows it to function as a rest for your spoon or the pan's lid. This helps keep your workspace organized and prevents the lid from sliding off the counter.
Yes, 2mm is considered a professional-grade thickness for copper cookware. It provides the ideal balance between rapid thermal responsiveness and the structural durability needed to prevent warping over time.
Copper is a reactive metal and will naturally develop a patina, or darker finish, as it is exposed to air and heat. This is a normal characteristic of the material and does not affect the pan's cooking performance; you can easily polish it back to a bright shine if you prefer the original look.
