Antique Copper Lechefrite Drip Pan, Refurbished Roasting Grill Pan, Wrought Iron Handle

This totally refurbished Lechefrite can be used for its original purpose of catching drips from roasting meat or it can be used for poaching fish or indeed roasting meats itself.

This old lady has seen some life. There are numerous indentations and signs of wear and use. There is an old repair on the middle handle arm secured by three small rivets.

This has had a long illustrious history, it is hand raised and hammered, it has a wrought iron handle and has been re-tinned and re-polished. It has been refurbished to a standard to show its age and to ensure its future.

This design has been used since medieval times and is still made today. This is an older example, it is around the early to mid 19th century. It is a hand made piece with the rivets and handles totally hand forged, the patina is exceptional. This has a single handle with a 'rats tail' loop and sits slightly backwards.

This is beautifully made. There is a rolled edge

This is one that could be used on a daily basis and can be used from stove to table, a real talking point.

26 cm or 10 1/4 inches wide
Handle Length 54cm 21 1/4 inches

It is all you would expect from a properly refurbished French copper antique pan.
