Heritage Steel French Skillet

The 5-ply construction features alternating layers of stainless steel and conductive metals throughout the entire pan, not just the base. This ensures heat spreads evenly across the bottom and up the sides, which prevents hot spots and helps maintain a consistent temperature while you sear or sauté.

While this is a generous size, it fits well on most standard residential ranges. Because it includes a helper handle, you can easily maneuver the pan between burners or transfer it to the oven, provided you have the necessary clearance.

Yes, the skillet is fully induction-compatible. Its magnetic stainless steel exterior allows it to work efficiently with induction, as well as gas, electric, and ceramic cooktops.

The hollow stainless steel handle is designed to dissipate heat more effectively than a solid handle, keeping it cooler to the touch during standard stovetop use. However, if you are using the pan in the oven, the handle will become hot and you should always use an oven mitt.

While the pan is durable and scratch-resistant, it is best to avoid harsh scouring pads that can dull the finish. For everyday cleaning, warm soapy water and a soft sponge work well, and a stainless steel cleaner can be used periodically to remove any heat tints or stubborn residue.

The lifetime warranty covers defects in materials and craftsmanship under normal household use. It ensures that the pan will remain free from issues like warping or handle detachment for as long as you own it.
