Shipping note: I ship only on the weekend. Thank you for your understanding. This antique, 19th century English Copper saucepan+lid "marriage set" consists of a Benham-stamped saucepan and a lid that fits it well! This piece sits flat, and features "the dot" and dovetails! For more info on "The Dot," and dovetails, please see the below posts by blogger, 'Vintage French Copper:" https://www.vintagefrenchcopper.com/identification/construction/the-dot https://www.vintagefrenchcopper.com/identification/construction/all-about-dovetails Both pieces were restored by New England-based coppersmith East Coast Tinning, where they received new tin, and the copper polished! After restoration, they have been used well, once, as seen in photos, so the new owner can use this immediately after unboxing! This set may have tarnish or discoloration to the exterior copper due to inside temperature and/or humidity fluctuations, and the tin has darkened after considerable use, but that is a normal occurrence over the life of a pan. Packing and Shipping: This will be packed well with bubble wrap and cardboard around the handles to minimize potential damage in transit.
