We love the warmth of well-loved copper in our Everyday Château, and know you'll love it in yours. With its deep patina, generous proportions, and long handle, this vintage sauté pan brings that collected-over-time feeling to the kitchen.

At approximately 12 inches wide, it offers lovely room for buttery mushrooms, gently sautéed vegetables, or a family breakfast. Between meals, hang it where its rich copper tones can become part of your everyday surroundings.

Condition, honestly: The copper has pronounced patina and surface wear. There is a slight dent immediately to the right of the handle rivets, shown in the close-up photograph. The tin lining is intact but visibly worn, rough-looking, and heavily discolored; it is not freshly retinned. Please examine all three photographs. The $185 price reflects this condition.

• Vintage copper sauté pan
• Approximately 12 inches wide, excluding handle
• Long handle with hanging hole
• One individual pan; the piece photographed is the piece you will receive

Three simple tips for cooking with tin-lined copper

1. Add your fat first. Put enough butter, oil, or cooking liquid in the cold pan to cover the base before turning on the heat. Never heat it empty.
2. Keep the heat gentle. Start low and use low to medium heat; copper responds quickly. Save very high-heat searing for another pan, and never leave this one heating unattended.
3. Be kind to the tin. Use wooden or silicone utensils. Let the pan cool, then hand-wash with mild soap and a soft sponge; avoid metal tools and abrasive scrubbers.
