Tin-Lined Copper Stockpot with Lid by Cuisine Romefort

Two cast iron side handles and a matching lid give this tin-lined copper stockpot a balanced, traditional outline. Five capacities, from 1.5 to 7.4 quarts, allow the pot to be chosen for the household and the preparation. The broad body offers accessible space for stirring soups and stews, while copper responds promptly as the heat is reduced to a simmer. Each selected size includes one pot and its lid.

“I look for a pot that can be lifted steadily once it is full. The two handles are useful here, and the range of capacities makes it possible to choose for the meals usually cooked rather than for the largest imagined occasion.”
-Mrs. Mayfair

Care & Ownership

Use low to medium heat, keep food or liquid in the pan while heating, and never heat it empty. Tin melts at approximately 446°F; this is a material limit, not an oven-safety rating. Use wooden or silicone utensils and avoid metal tools, scouring pads and abrasive cleaners. Gray changes in the tin are normal; do not scrub them away. If the lining is worn through or damaged, have it assessed for re-tinning before further cooking.

Wash by hand with warm water, mild dish soap and a soft cloth or sponge, then rinse and dry thoroughly, including the cast iron handles. Do not put in the dishwasher. Allow hot cookware to cool gradually before washing; avoid plunging it into cold water. Store in a dry place, with a soft separator if pieces are nested. Use dry potholders for hot handles.

Copper darkens naturally with use. To restore its brightness, use a copper polish suitable for cookware or the maker’s lemon-and-fine-salt method on a soft sponge; rinse away all residue and dry promptly. Keep copper polish off tin-lined interiors and follow the polish directions for food-contact surfaces. Avoid abrasive pads.

Maker / Heritage

Cuisine Romefort grew from Benoît Romefort’s work at the sharpening wheel. Trained in Thiers, France, he spent years sharpening knives for home cooks and professional chefs in his Berlin shop before developing the family brand with his son Marc. That close attention to working tools carries into the cookware: solid copper discs are spun into shape through rotation and pressure in France, giving each vessel a body of copper rather than a decorative copper coating. The collection keeps the traditional distinction between unlined specialist pieces and tin-lined cooking vessels, allowing the tool to be chosen for the way it will be used.
