de Buyer Prima Matera Copper Fry Pan

by de Buyer · 🇫🇷 France

Prima Matera is de Buyer's copper range: a thick copper body bonded to a stainless steel cooking surface, so it responds like copper without the reactivity. It is induction-compatible, unlike most copper cookware. de Buyer states that its cookware is engineered and manufactured at its own factory in France.
