Kansa Bronze Ayurvedic Frying Pan - Naturally Non-Stick

Kansa bronze promotes wellness and is entwined with Ayurvedic principles. We have named our saucepan Igneus which is Latin for fiery or of fire, reflecting the pans purpose in searing and frying. Bronze cookware was once widely used across the Roman empire and ancient world. This is a solid casting of Kansa bronze which is a specific type of bronze with a higher tin content (78% Copper 22% tin). Tin is naturally non-stick; therefore, unlike other pans that are non stick coated the tin here is part of the alloy so it does not need to be relined and will last forever. The exterior is wrought, sculptural and of artisanal quality.

Key points:

• 28cm wide cooking surface
• PFAS free
• Excellent heat retention and distribution due to the 4mm solid bronze cast wall 
• It is the thickness of the cast wall that differentiates our product to other Kansa cookware products. 
• Cast in Kansa bronze [78% copper, 22% tin] a pure bell metal that promotes wellness
• Cooking from Kansa vessels fulfils the requirement of important copper trace metals 
• Kansa bronze is highly suitable for use in cookware, as tin is naturally non stick and non-toxic whilst copper is ultra conductive
• Can be used in the oven as all parts are made of bronze and the handle is of welded construction
• Bronze is antimicrobial, durable and resists corrosion
• The bronze artifacts unearthed in the ancient city of Pompey are testament to bronze's material longevity
• Generational, heritage cookware to become part of your family story
• Suitable for all hobs except induction

This is Bronze Cookware in Artform

The exterior of our pans feature wrought, sculptural lines set against molten polished ones. Evoking tensions between dark and light, ancient and modern. A visually appealing look that could only be achieved with a highly specialised casting process. 

Thick Bronze Pans Have Excellent Heat Conductivity and Even Distribution

Thick pans especially those made of cast bronze have excellent at heat retention because they have high thermal mass. The greater the mass and density of a material, the more thermal energy it can absorb and store, leading to a more stable cooking temperature. Bronze, an alloy of copper and  tin, combines high thermal conductivity with the benefits of high thermal mass. The copper content makes bronze second only to pure silver among performance cooking metals.

For Searing and Frying

When you add a cold steak to a pan, a thin pan's surface temperature can plummet, causing the meat to steam rather than sear. At 4mm thick this bronze pan has substantial thermal mass and resists temperature drops, allowing for a deep, even sear.

Tin Provides a Naturally Non-Stick Surface

Our naturally non-stick surface comes from tin. However the pan is also cast from Kansa Bronze, a specific type of bronze with a higher than average tin content. It is essentially the same alloy as bronze, composed of copper and tin, but with a ratio of 78:22; whereas the average copper tin bronze ratio is 85:15.
