De Buyer, much more than cast iron pans

De Buyer, much more than cast-iron pans

Many of you are already familiar with De Buyer iron pans. They are pans that, as we’ve always said, will last you a lifetime, at a more than reasonable price. You can feel the quality of these pans just by holding them, noticing their weight and the thickness of the iron griddle they are formed from; what’s more, their long handle makes them comfortable to work with in the kitchen, and their beeswax finish provides a natural protection that is also appreciated.

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas!

As many of you know, a couple of months ago we opened our new offices. Here, a carpenter we knew worked the wood as it has always been done. This workshop, where we now have the offices, still conveys what it once meant and gives me the feeling that it largely inspires what we do, helping us convey this sense of craftsmanship — that we appreciate the traditional, and that we put care into what we do in the same way the carpenter put care into working the wood.
