The plain mirror-polished sibling of M’Cook. Same five-ply construction, no hammering — a quieter surface, and a non-drip edge that pours a sauce without running down the side.

5 layers, drawn as one body. 2.6 mm from the outside face to the cooking surface.

The layers run up the sides, not just across the base. One litre of water to a rolling boil in three minutes, against seven in a pan with a disc bonded underneath.

Care

  • Hand washing is recommended for every Mauviel1830 piece. Detergents attack the coatings and the aluminium inside a multi-ply body.
  • On induction or ceramic, never go past two thirds of the hob’s power. Overheating is what warps a base and makes food stick, not the pan.

How this piece is made

  • The hand

    Most of what leaves the workshop has been finished by someone who has done it for twenty years. Copper is spun over a wooden chuck, then checked by eye and by ear.

  • The fire

    Bronze handles are cast in sand, filed, and riveted rather than welded. A rivet can be drilled out, which is why a handle can be replaced instead of the pan.

  • The Mauviel workshop in the early 1900s

    The same address

    The workshop photographed in the early 1900s is the workshop still in use. Villedieu-les-Po\xC3\xAAles has worked copper since the twelfth century.

Made by Mauviel1830 in Villedieu-les-Po\xC3\xAAles, Normandy. The Culinary Equipment Co is the appointed distributor for South Africa.
