Mepra by Pininfarina Double-Handled Stainless Steel Frying Pan

Description

Pininfarina-style double-handled saucepan: design excellence in a saucepan

There’s something different about a pan that’s the product of an automotive design centre. The Stile by Pininfarina double-handled saucepan is one of those rare kitchen items that you recognise at a glance: its clean lines, square handles with rounded edges, and a steel surface that doesn’t scream for attention but certainly makes an impression. Mepra manufactures it to the same quality standards as the rest of the Stile range, whilst the design bears Pininfarina’s signature.

Stainless steel and craftsmanship

The body is made of stainless steel, a material that does not absorb odours, does not chip and withstands daily use well, whether in a home kitchen or behind the scenes in a restaurant. The two oversized handles, firmly attached to the body, stay cool to the touch for longer than a thin handle and allow you to lift the pan safely even when it is full.

Heat-diffusing base and compatibility with hobs

The base, which is thicker than the sides of the pan, distributes heat evenly across the entire surface and retains it for longer, even after the heat has been turned off. The rounded lower rim, with no sharp edges, protects induction and glass-ceramic hobs from unwanted scratches. The pan can be used on gas hobs, electric hotplates, halogen hobs, induction hobs and in the oven. See also: How to choose the perfect shape?

Available diameters and capacities

The Stile double-handled saucepan is available in three sizes, designed to cater for everything from a quick meal for two to larger portions for the family or for serving in a restaurant. The 24 cm diameter, with a capacity of 3 litres, is the most versatile size; the 28 cm, with a capacity of 4 litres, is probably the most popular mid-range option; the 32 cm, with a capacity of 5 litres, is designed for those who cook for large groups or work in a professional kitchen.

Frequently asked questions about the Stile Pininfarina 2-handled saucepan

What is the difference between the three available diameters?
