Antique French Copper Daubiere or Oven Pan Bronze Handles Totally Hand Made Dark Tin Lining, Bent, Misshapen, Dented and absolutely fantastic. Antique French totally hand made daubiere or oven pan. This is very old and very well used, this could still be used for cooking now and it is incredibly decorative, I think the value in this is the age, patina and genuine beauty of the copper. There is missing tin so to be used for any cooking it needs to be re tinned. The patina is exceptional and it has many indentations, scrapes, scratches, bruises and faults all over this piece. It sits flat and the edge is sound. The handles are tight now have been like that for many generations. The tin is very dark and missing in places. But the colour, the richness of it can take your breath away. Running your fingertips across the copper you can feel the years of use and work this old dish has taken, it is a true relic of a French homestead and one you can own and wonder what stories it could tell. It is more than 150 years old and was made by a Coppersmith for a family to use on a daily basis. It has a castellated joint on the base and is totally hand hammered. The shape and manufacture of the handles shows it's age. This is a fabulous example of a totally hand made and raised daubiere by an Artisan Coppersmith It's a lovely old thing.
