M’Elite Rondeau with Lid
Price range: R10 160.00 through R12 530.00 Inc VAT
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.

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 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.
