"Second one"
I recently purchased a second one of these - not because the first one was broken or anything - but just because I wanted two of them! One of my favourite pans without a doubt as so versatile.

"The biggest 'frying pan' you will ever likely use!!"
I purchased this Gratin Pan rather than a frying pan so that I could also use it in the oven as my cooker will not accommodate the handle of a frying pan.
Like all Falk products, it is a bi-metal construction, copper on the outside for good heat conduction and stainless steel inside to provide durability and provide a safe contact surface for virtually all food types.
The conduction of the copper gives such good even heating that 'hot' spots are minimised avoiding burn on and achieves easy cleaning after use.
Having two ring handles makes is great on the stove top and in the oven.
It is the large and yes it makes a great paella pan, it's brilliant at frying steak and as I already possessed a 32cm lid its possibilities are endless.
An additional feature is that these look so good they can also be used as serving dishes on the table.
One word of warning however, due to its excellent heat conduction, the cast iron handles become very hot so always use a pan holder cloth.

Our Classical Range is not compatible with induction hobs. That is a feature of the new Fusion and Signature 2.0 ranges, both of which are also constructed from solid copper and share all other identical characteristics.
