La Cintura di Orione is a unique cookware set that combines the undisputed design mastery of Richard Sapper and the expertise of culinary celebrities from France and Italy. Alain Chapel, the Troisgros family, Raymond Thuilier, Roger Verge, Gualtiero Marchesi and Angelo Paracucchi are all chefs, gourmets and culinary authorities with whom Richard Sapper consulted on the optimum shape, dimensions and materials for the cookware. The result of the collaboration between culinary and design masters is an extremely elegant and practical dinnerware set with captivating aesthetic qualities. Some of the crockery is made of an exceptionally beautiful combination of polished copper and stainless steel, which mesmerises with its deep orange sheen.
The saucepan on display is made of copper coated on the inside with a layer of top-quality stainless steel. Due to its small size, the saucepan is ideal for sauces, stewing and preparing small portions of food. The excellent heat-conducting copper ensures that the ingredients heated in the saucepan are heated evenly from all sides. The pot does not come with the lid shown in the photo.
