Light. Weight. Cast. Iron. The Featherweight Cast Iron Pan from Sanjo Special Cast is the fruit of centuries of metalworking advancements by the metallurgists of Tsubame Sanjo. This collection of frying pans features walls measuring only 1.5 mm in thickness, resulting in a pan that's barely half the weight of traditional cast iron cookware yet retains the same superior heat-conducting properties.

Somewhat smaller than typical pans, the Featherweight Cast Iron Pan is designed to move seamlessly from a compact oven to the tabletop. Its high walls ensure food stays put, and the sloped lip allows for easy transfers from pan to plate.

Each Featherweight Cast Iron Pan only needs a quick, thin layer of oil heated over the stove to season before cooking to enhance its non-stick properties. These pans are also safe for all cook surfaces. Please note that the pans have a heat-resistant silicon coating to ensure longevity.

The workshop of Sanjo Special Cast (SSC) can be found in Tsubame Sanjo, a town in Niigata Prefecture whose name is synonymous with metalworking. Their invention of a ductile, graphite-rich FCD cast iron material allows for the creation of extremely strong yet thin cookware that boasts top-quality heat retention and distribution at a fraction of the weight.
