Micro-producer; extreme focus on sustainability; high price point justified by labor-intensive hand-casting. This is the ultimate 'ethical' hidden gem. The pans are hand-cast in small batches. They feature a unique textured exterior and a smooth-ground interior. The seasoning is done with organic flaxseed oil in a high-temperature kiln. It is a tiny operation (just a few people) making some of the most beautiful and functional iron in North America.
