The perfect heat transmission and the guarantee of a constant temperature make it a material with extraordinary performance in the kitchen, even at low heat.
• The 10% 18/10 stainless steel interior is food safe and does not alter the properties of copper.
• Its elegant design, which perfectly combines tradition with innovation, timeless materials with extraordinary finishes.

The Prima Matera De Buyer copper saucepan (induction) is available in the following sizes:

Note: The pieces should be heated gradually and never used at high heat (maximum 3/4 of the induction cooktop’s power). Thanks to copper’s high thermal conductivity (higher than iron or multilayer stainless steel), higher power is not required. To avoid thermal shocks and burns, allow them to cool after use before cleaning or handling.
