This 8.5-qt. Stew Pan with Lid and Cast Iron Handles can be used as a stockpot or a casserole. You can use it to braise, roast, make soups or giant batches of sauces! It's also great for boiling water or making a large batch of chili. It is also ideal to use for recipes that require high-heat sautéing and sustained simmering. It's crafted from copper and has a stainless steel interior that won't interact with foods and makes for easy cleaning. Copper is a terrific choice for cookware because it is twice more conductive than aluminum and ten times more conductive than stainless steel. No wonder copper is the most preferred material of cookware by popular chefs and avid home cooks; its ability to heat up evenly and rapidly and to cool down just as quick allows for maximum control and excellent cooking results. Please handwash with mild dish soap. Made in France.

The stainless interior resists sticking, doesn't react with acidic foods, and cleans easily with a sponge. The cookware also offers durable handles anchored with rivets that hold up to heavy use.
