De Buyer Inocuivre Copper Lid with Brass Handle 28cm

The De Buyer Inocuivre 28cm lid is designed to complement the Inocuivre range of copper cookware. Constructed from copper with a stainless steel lining, it sits securely on matching Inocuivre pans and provides a close, consistent seal during cooking — useful when managing temperature-sensitive preparations where heat retention and moisture control matter.

In a professional kitchen, the material composition of a lid is rarely an afterthought. Copper conducts and distributes heat more evenly than most metals, which means this lid participates actively in the cooking process rather than acting as a passive cover. For sauces, braises, and reductions that require careful, controlled heat, that consistency is practical rather than decorative. The brass handle stays cool enough to handle during normal service and adds genuine durability — brass is a robust material that holds up well under daily kitchen use.

This lid is best suited to kitchens already using the De Buyer Inocuivre pan range, where it completes the set and maintains the heat-management properties the cookware is built around. It is well suited to fine dining, brasserie, and restaurant environments where copper cookware is a deliberate choice based on performance rather than aesthetics alone. For operations running higher volumes or requiring a wider diameter, other sizes within the Inocuivre range may be worth considering.

If you are building out an Inocuivre batterie de cuisine and are unsure which sizes best suit your menu and service style, the team is happy to talk through the options with you.
