The tin is heavily worn, scratched from previous use, and shows significant exposed copper patches across the bottom surface.

It is sold strictly AS-IS for restoration or rustic kitchen display.- **Base / Flatness Note:** Please note that the bottom base of the pan bows slightly outward. Because it is not perfectly flat on the bottom, it will rock slightly if placed on a hard, level countertop and is best suited for gas ranges, open flames, or as a gorgeous decorative display piece.- **Exterior:** Beautiful natural aged copper patina with typical light surface scuffs and scattered oxidation spots from kitchen storage. There are no major dents or deep gashes. - **Handles:** The classic French brass handles on both the pan and the lid are entirely secure, sturdy, and structurally tight with no wiggle.**Measurements:**- Top Rim Diameter: 9.5 inches (24 cm)This is a phenomenal, premium restoration project piece for a copper enthusiast or a spectacular display item for a professional or farmhouse-style kitchen.
