Ruffoni Historia Hammered Copper Fondue Pot, 1-Qt.

Legend has it that fondue originated when a shepherd in the Swiss Alps heated his dinner of wine and cheese in a pot to eat with his bread. Our heavy-gauge copper pot, handcrafted in Italy, is designed for both sweet and savory fondues.

• 1-qt. cap.
  
• Crafted of hand-hammered copper for excellent heat conductivity.
• Interior is lined with durable nonreactive tin.
• Chromed burner allows adjustment of the flame (fuel not included).
• Includes 6 stainless-steel forks with stay-cool wooden handles; additional forks are sold separately.
• Made in Italy.
  

• 6 1/4" diam., 10 1/4" high overall.
• Outer pot: 2-qt. cap.
• Ceramic insert: 1-qt. cap.
• 6 lb. 3 oz. with insert.
• Made in Italy.

Additional Information

• Use the pot alone for oil-based fondues, or insert the porcelain liner for melting cheese or chocolate.
• Riveted brass handles.
• Sturdy cast-iron stand.
• This product contains the following chemical: tin (and compounds). For more information, visit the Williams Sonoma Disclosures page.

Use

• Ideal for gas and electric cooktops.
• Oven safe to 450°F.
• To protect the tin lining from damage, do not heat the pot empty or at temperatures above 450°F.
• Use wood, plastic or heat-resistant nylon tools to avoid scratching the tin lining.
  

Care

• Allow pot to cool before washing.
• Hand-wash; dry immediately with a soft cloth.
• Avoid using steel wool, steel scouring pads or harsh detergents.
• Copper will develop a rich patina over time. This will not affect the pan's cooking performance. To keep the exterior looking new, use a copper polish or a combination of lemon and salt.
• The tin lining protects foods from reacting with copper but will become discolored over time. This is normal. Depending on the frequency of use and types of food cooked, the tin lining may eventually have to be replaced. To prolong the lining's usefulness, avoid cooking acidic ingredients in your tin-lined cookware.
