Ruffoni Historia Hammered Copper Stock Pot and similar items

On one of his early trips to Europe, Chuck Williams discovered Ruffoni, a family-owned company in Omegna, Italy, that had been producing extraordinary pans for 45 years. Crafted in the same artisan tradition used for decades, this pot is hammered from a single sheet of copper at the Ruffoni family workshop in the Italian Alps. The tin interior is lined by hand to create a professional-quality cooking surface. This pot is the perfect way to blend beauty and functionality in the kitchen. Hand-hammered copper construction guarantees top precision and control, allowing the pot to respond quickly to changes in cooking temperature. Interior is lined with durable, nonreactive tin. Shape inspired by antique pots that were traditionally used to prepare dried beans and pulses. Made in Italy. 7" diam., 7 1/2" high (8 1/2" high with lid). 5 1/2-qt. cap. 4 lb. 13 oz.
