Beautiful + Big Copper Dutch Ovens

Sertodo Copper Dutch Oven
Available in 7-Quart (10x5") + 12-Quart (12x6") | Heavy-Gauge 2mm | Tin-Lined | Patented Handle System | Lid Included

The centerpiece of a serious kitchen. Built for the cooking that matters most.

A Dutch oven is the pan you reach for when the stakes are highest — the long braise, the Sunday roast, the beef bourguignon that moves from stovetop to oven and back again over the course of an afternoon. It needs to hold heat evenly, transition between cooking environments without complaint, and perform consistently over hours rather than minutes. Heavy-gauge 2mm copper does all of that better than cast iron, better than enameled steel, and better than anything else you can put on a burner.

Available in two sizes — 7-quart for smaller households and focused cooking, 12-quart for large-format braises, roasts, and the kind of cooking that feeds a table worth gathering around. Both are built to the same 2mm heavy-gauge standard, both are hot-tinned in the traditional method, and both include a lid. The 12-quart is the Dutch oven for people who cook seriously and entertain generously. The 7-quart is the one that earns its place on the stove every week.

Copper's heat distribution is what separates it from every alternative material in a Dutch oven specifically. Cast iron holds heat well but distributes it unevenly and responds slowly to temperature changes. Copper distributes immediately and evenly across the entire surface — bottom, walls, and all — and responds the moment you adjust the flame. For slow cooking, that means no hot spots scorching the bottom while the center simmers. For searing before a braise, it means uniform browning across the entire surface without rotating the pan.

The hot-tinned interior is the traditional non-stick solution — naturally slick, food-safe, free from PTFE and PFOA, and designed to improve with seasoning over time. The patented handle system is a genuine engineering improvement over traditional copper Dutch oven handles: lighter, better at dissipating heat, and designed to hold a spatula or lid while you're mid-cook — a small detail that matters enormously when both hands are busy. Countersunk stainless steel rivets sit flush to the interior walls, leaving no ridges to trap food or complicate cleaning.

Hand-hammered from recycled copper. Built for the oven, the stovetop, and the table. Guaranteed for life.

Available sizes:

• 7-quart | 10x5"
• 12-quart | 12x6"

Why we love it:

• Heavy-gauge 2mm copper delivers even, immediate heat distribution that cast iron and enameled steel can't match
• Stovetop to oven without limitation — built for exactly the cooking that requires both
• Hot-tinned interior is naturally non-stick and completely free from PTFE and PFOA
• Tin lining develops a seasoned patina with use — improves over time rather than degrading
• Patented handle system dissipates heat, reduces weight, and doubles as a spatula and lid rest mid-cook
• Countersunk stainless steel rivets sit flush to interior walls for easy cleaning
• Two sizes cover both focused everyday cooking and large-format entertaining
• Lids included with both sizes
• Hand-hammered from recycled copper — built to heirloom standard

Native Manor Note: Most home cooks use enameled cast iron for braising because it's what's most visible and most marketed. Cast iron holds heat, but it distributes it unevenly, it's heavy, and it responds slowly. Copper does everything cast iron does, faster, more evenly, and with a fraction of the weight — and the tin lining means nothing synthetic is ever in contact with your food during those long, slow cooks where the pan and its contents spend hours together. This is the Dutch oven that professionals have always known about. It just hasn't always been this accessible.
