This is a beautiful piece, made to last generations. A new tin lining was hand applied in our studio, so it is ready to use again! There are plenty of small marks and bumps to the outside, especially to the edge of the lid, as to be expected from a piece that was used in a commercial environment for decades. The handles are sturdy and securely connected. The pot sits flat without rocking. The body & lid have been stamped for J. Gaillard Paris, the body has also been stamped with the logo for the Grand Hôtel de Vittel.

Measures approximately 15.5" across including handles, 14" not including handles, by 8" wide, by 4" deep not including lid. Weighs approximately 3 pounds 12 ounces with a wall thickness of 1.8-2mm. less
