No extra ornament, no polished perfection... just a hand-hammered body, a long copper handle and the kind of worked surface that makes a kitchen feel older, warmer and more interesting the moment it is unboxed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKnown in French as a casserole à queue, this antique copper saucepan likely dates from the early 19th century. The tapered body was hammered by hand, then fitted with an all-copper handle attached by a hand-shaped bracket and a rosette of copper rivets. The rolled cuff at the end of the handle is pierced for hanging, a practical detail that also gives the piece a strong historical presence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe interior tin lining, or étamage, has worn back through long use, showing warm copper beneath. Because of that, I would enjoy this piece decoratively unless it is reviewed and retinned by a copper specialist. Hung with other French copper cookware, set near old cutting boards or displayed beside stoneware and linen, it brings depth, age and the unmistakable glow of a real working French kitchen.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Provence Collection","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53671364526423,"sku":"COP-115","price":498.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0938\/4686\/4215\/files\/french-hammered-copper-casserole-a-queue-19th-century-2.jpg?v=1788802637","url":"https:\/\/theprovencecollection.com\/products\/antique-french-copper-saucepan-hand-forged-early-19th-century","provider":"The Provence Collection","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
