    A timeless classic

    The Historia collection

    Historia, meaning 'history' in Latin, is perhaps Ruffoni's most iconic collection. Each shape has been created by our master coppersmiths in the same way as cooking vessels were manufactured in royal castles and palaces upon the request of court cooks. Truly a celebration of our shared culinary history, with this collection we relive centuries of tradition and honor exquisite craftmanship:

    - Each item is skillfully crafted from a single sheet of copper for maximum heat conductivity and superior temperature control

    - Hammered by our master coppersmiths to ensure increased stregth and lasting beauty

    - Internally lined by hand over fire with the purest, durable nonreactive tin so naturally low-stick

    - Bronze handles are individually cast and attached with durable stainless steel rivets

    - Handles and lids are enriched with finials in exquisite shapes such as acorns, artichokes, vegetables and animals to bring warmth and elegance to any table

    - Heirloom quality items, worthy of being handed down through generations

    - Lifetime Warranty

    - Made in Italy

    The Ruffoni accessories

    Pots and pans might be the kitchen’s main stars, but accessories and specialty pieces play a crucial supporting role. Some, such as the pasta insert and the warming stand are born as additions to main pieces and allow discerning home chefs to get even more use and enjoyment out of their collections. Others, like our jars and olivewood tools, don't need anything else: a lovely gift idea for a Ruffoni lover but also an elegant collection starter, suitable for anyone. Finally, some specialty items like the zabaglione bowl and jam pot honor antique confectionery traditions that rely on copper’s fantastic thermal and chemical properties in the making of caramel, jams and preserves, whisking egg whites and creating zabaglione.

    - Made of conductive solid copper, resistant stainless steel, clear glass and olive wood

    - Heirloom quality items, worthy of being handed down through generations

    - Recommended for cooking, gifting, and for a stunning presentation at the table

    USE AND CARE FOR THE HISTORIA COLLECTION

    Taking care of your Ruffoni the right way

    Cooking

    Recommended for use on gas stovetops, open flames (wood, charcoal, barbecue) and in the oven - electric cooktops also possible.

    Never heat the pot empty and do not exceed 220 C (430 F). Bronze handles will get hot: always use pot holders while cooking.

    Use wood or plastic tools to avoid scratching the tin lining.

    Washing and Polishing

    Hand-wash with a soft sponge and mild detergent, and dry immediately with a soft cloth.

    With use, copper develops a rich patina over time that many love and cherish. To restore a polished shine, use a good copper polish (like Ruffoni Cleaner) or salt with lemon juice/vinegar.

    Tin Care

    Tin will naturally discolor over time, but remain equally effective. Depending on use, the tin lining may eventually wear off and requireretinning. Prolong the tin lining's life by not scratching it with metal tools, never overheating the cookware, and limiting the use of acidic ingredients.
