Pure carbon steel — 99% iron — with no non-stick coating of any kind. The black patina that develops with use is polymerized fat, not a PFAS finish. Made in Thiers, France, where de Buyer has manufactured kitchen equipment since 1830. The PRO handle is stainless steel and stays oven-safe to 600°F, unlike the original riveted iron handle. The disqualifier story is completely clean: no coatings, no PFAS, no undisclosed treatments.
