Trying to converge - I am putting together a list of makers I would consider. I have so far:
- Mauviel (the M250 line) SS clad
- Falk Stainless Clad (it seems that all their pans in the relevant size have 2.5 thickness)
- Weyersberg - german manufacture making SS clad pans - I am contacting them to find out what thickness of copper they use
- Mazzetti - they make silver and tin clad pans. The silver plated ones (2.5mm copper) are on the expensive side (not that far off from Fals though). Their tim plated pans come at 2.5 and 3.0 copper thickness and have rather reasonable price.
Concerning design I am leaning towards a larger (28 or 30 cm) sauté pan with 2 loop handles (like the Falk stew pans). Main candidates are Falk and Mazzetti. Something tells me that this is not going to end up cheaply in particular with Mazzetti as they only sell the pan I have in mind with a lid.
I would in particular appreciate if there is some experience with Mazzetti pans - seems like a small producer and there is very little about them to be found online.
I am also not sure whether I should also get a copper lid together with the pan - at the relevant size these cost around 100 which is about 1/3 price of the pan. Given that I do not use the lid on our Greenpan all that much it seems like overkill. :scratchhead:
