M’Héritage 200 B
2 mm. The gauge that goes into professional kitchens, and the reason chefs say copper holds.
For professionals, and for home cooks who already know what 1.5 mm feels like and want more.
The difference between 1.5 mm and 2 mm sounds trivial and is not. A third more metal is a third more thermal mass, and thermal mass is what stops the pan’s temperature falling off a cliff when you add cold stock, cold shallots or a cold piece of fish. The surface stays hot enough to keep searing instead of steaming.
Everything else follows M’Héritage: 90% copper to 10% 18/10 stainless, mirror-polished, straight edge, cast bronze or cast iron handles. It is heavier, it costs more, and for a cook who works fast over high heat it is the correct pan.
This is also the line where the batteries get serious. The 16-piece set is R122,760 and is, quite literally, a professional kitchen.

La Manufacture
Villedieu-les-Poêles, since 1830

The town has worked copper since the twelfth century. Mauviel opened there in 1830 and has not moved since. Sheet copper arrives flat in four thicknesses and leaves as a pan: rolled, cut, spun over a wooden chuck, planished by hand where the shape asks for it, then tinned or lined with stainless steel.
