Hammered Copper Fondue Pot uses tealight candle 14cm

£98.00

A luxurious little copper fondue pot to make any occasion special.

Light the tealight candle at the bottom and fill the top pan with melted chocolate. Perfect for dipping fresh fruit, biscotti, doughnuts, etc. Also perfect for dipping chunks of bread into creamy cheese fondue or for keeping sauces warm.

Made from thick solid copper, it is hand-hammered into shape using traditional Italian production methods. This can be seen by the small indentations on the surface finish. The copper pan is hand tinned over fire with 100% virgin tin. Two solid brass handles are fixed in place with 5mm rivets to ensure strength. The bottom portion and candle holder is made of solid copper.

Copper is known for its superior heat conductivity and even cooking. It is loved for its quick response to temperature changes.

With care, this little fondue pot can last for generations and be cherished for many years.

A true heirloom piece.

Use with wooden or non-scratch utensils when cooking to avoid damaging the internal tin coating.

Beautifully handmade in Sant'Anastasia (near Naples) by Cu Artigiana's master craftsmen.

Material and Care

Copper and Brass. 

Tinned copper cookware must absolutely not be brought into contact with heat fire or put in the oven, without first having greased it with a layer of fat or having poured liquid on it like oil, water etc. Use a low flame. Maximum temperature 220°C. The use of a dishwasher is not recommended.

Internal cleaning

Wash carefully before and after use with normal kitchen detergent and rub with a sponge, avoiding abrasive or metallic ones. Protection of tinning To prolong the life of the tinning we recommend using wooden cutlery, avoiding metal ones or sharp ones, which can scratch. It is also recommended to cook over a low heat. With continuous use, tin, in contact with the acidity contained in some elements, tends to darken. It is a natural reaction and does not affect its hygiene. If the tin coating is no longer uniform, it will be essential to proceed to a new lining, you can consult our customer service in this regard.

External cleaning

Our objects are not externally protected with transparent paints which could be harmful at the time of use. With continuous use the exterior will take on that characteristic ancient copper colour. For those who prefer shiny copper we recommend using (externally only) cleaning products for copper. These are easily available on the market or the classic solution of vinegar and salt.

Packaging

What's inside?
A sneak peek to show you how we package up our parcels.

Each item is scrutinised before being sent. We only send items that reach our quality standards. Wooden items, such as handles, might feel a bit rough from the manufacturer. Our team in the UK hand sand some of these items to make sure the item is at its best.

We hand wrap delicate items before sending them to you to ensure they are protected and reach you in perfect condition. We don't believe in excessive packaging and believe the tools speak for themselves.

We hope to do our bit for the environment and reduce plastic waste. Most of our packaging is paper based and is non-laminated, which can be easily recycled or composted at home.

We aim to reuse materials and packaging where possible and this is usually the only plastic you will find in your parcel. This plastic protection can also be recycled.
