An ode to European cuisine, copper is the very symbol of regal feasts that satisfy the most demanding connoisseurs. With its superior conductivity, copper distributes heat to perfection for exquisite savory dishes, sugar syrups, and caramel sauces. This small copper sauce pan is best used for melting butter, heating sauces, and warming liqueurs. It is made of solid copper with stainless steel lining. The long handle is made of polished bronze and is firmly affixed with stainless steel rivets. The decorative lid, which prevents splattering, is sold separately.  The outer surface is polished for a smooth and glossy finish.
