A beautiful antique circa early 1900s French copper Windsor or splayed pot with iron handle, completely restored with new hand applied tin. In excellent condition, some signs of age and use from a commercial kitchen, small marks and bumps but no dents. It sits flat on our gas range, but there might be a very slight wobble on an extremely flat cooking surface such as glass.
Stamped with the mark of J Gaillard of Paris, also stamped "AC" which would have been the initials of the chef or establishment this pot belonged to.
This heavy, hotel-weight piece weighs 3 pounds 10 ounces, with 2.3-2.6mm thickness at upper rim (much thicker at the base). Measures 7” wide across the top, 5.5” wide at the base, 2.25” deep, and 14” long including handle.
