Antique French Copper Daubière with Hand-Forged Brass Handles, c. 1880

This antique French copper daubière is a remarkable example of 19th-century French cookware, dating to circa 1880. Traditionally used for slow-cooking meats and stews, daubières were prized for their ability to preserve flavor and tenderness. This piece features a hand-hammered finish, thick hand-forged brass handles, and large rolled copper rivets—details that highlight its strength, durability, and artisan construction. Restored for use, it carries the rich heritage of French provincial kitchens into today’s culinary spaces.

Part of our Coppermill Kitchen antique copper cookware collection, this heirloom-quality daubière blends function with artistry. Style it as a showpiece on open shelving, bring it to the table as a dramatic serving vessel, or keep it as a centerpiece of your copper cookware collection. To care, hand wash with warm water and mild soap, dry thoroughly, and polish sparingly to maintain its shine—or allow the copper to age into its natural patina for that authentic old-world French kitchen look.
