Calphalon Tri-Ply Copper unites centuries-old culinary tradition with distinctive style. Featuring graceful curves and a stunning combination of expertly finished, tri-bonded metals, this new collection is as beautiful as it is hard-working. Here, a 3-qt. Chef's Pan offers complete versatility when cooking. Use it to sear and brown meat, saute vegetables or cook a one-pan meal. A brushed copper exterior and aluminum inner core combine for superior conductivity (the best that there is) and precise cooking control for spectacular results. Fine-satin, brushed stainless steel interior won't react to foods and won't tarnish or change colors even when cooking acidic foods like tomato sauce. Other features include flared rims for easy pouring, well-riveted, curved handles that stay cool to the touch during stovetop use and stainless steel lids that trap steam, heat and flavors. Oven- and broiler-safe. Handwashing is recommended followed by thorough drying to avoid any spots.

This 3-quart chef’s pan with high sides cooks vegetables, reduces fruit sauces, or just warms leftovers. Part of Calphalon’s premium Tri-Ply Copper line, this brilliant stainless-steel and copper-accented cookware cooks as beautifully as it looks. The pan’s exterior is crafted of copper—-the superior metal for heat conduction—-and a heavy-gauge aluminum core runs through its center. The combination of these two metals provides more exact control while cooking and excellent end results. The interior is made of 18/10 stainless steel, which is nonreactive to acidic foods and offers a reflective surface that makes it easier to know when foods are completely cooked. This cookware has Calphalon’s patented stainless-steel Cool-V handles that stay cool to the touch on the stovetop and stainless-steel lids that fit snugly onto the pan for a tight seal. All Tri-Ply Copper cookware is oven-safe up to 450 degrees F and is covered by a lifetime warranty. --Cristina Vaamonde
