Light. Weight. Cast. Iron. The Featherweight Cast Iron Pan from Sanjo Special Cast is the fruit of centuries of metalworking advancements by the metallurgists of Tsubame Sanjo. This collection of frying pans features walls measuring only 1.5 mm in thickness, resulting in a pan that's barely half the weight of traditional cast iron cookware yet retains the same superior heat-conducting properties. Somewhat smaller than typical pans, the Featherweight Cast Iron Pan is designed to move seamlessly from a compact oven to the tabletop. Its high walls ensure food stays put, and the sloped lip allows for easy transfers from pan to plate.
Each Featherweight Cast Iron Pan is preseasoned and ready for immediate use. These pans are also safe for all cook surfaces. Please note that the pans have a heat-resistant silicon coating to ensure longevity.
