Mauviel pots, pans, and utensils have been made in France since 1830, to the highest standards of function, quality, and durability. From heritage copper pans to the exceptional M’Cook stainless steel range (a Borough Kitchen team and customer favourite), we carry the largest selection of Mauviel cookware not just in the UK, but the world. Here is a brief overview of our collection.
M'Cook (M’Cook, M’CookB)
Mauviel's M'Cook range consists of five-ply stainless steel pans that have exterior and interior layers of 18/10 stainless steel, around three layers of aluminium that provides fast and uniform heat distribution. This construction is unique because the central layer of aluminium is pure, while the supporting layers contain elements that help bond the aluminium to the steel. This allows for excellent heat responsiveness while still providing thick construction from base to edge, for sturdiness and heat retention.
Like all Mauviel pans, the handles are the same length as the base, which makes the pan feel balanced and comfortable to hold. It also allows them to stack neatly for efficient storage, making these pans ideal for apartment kitchens. The long handles are distinctly curved, with thumb grooves.
M’Cook pans have stainless steel handles that stay cool on the hob. M’CookB pans are exactly the same as M’Cook pans, but they have bronze handles that do not stay as cool; they should be handled with care, using tea towels to grip.
We do not recommend these pans for dishwasher use, as harsh detergents make the edges of these pans feel sharp with time. They are suitable for all hobs including induction. Pans with bronze handles will tarnish in the dishwasher.
Mauviel M'Heritage (M'150S, M'150B, M'200B)
Mauviel's M’Heritage range of copper cookware combines 90% copper with 10% stainless steel for superior heat responsiveness with a durable lining that will never wear down. The M'150 ranges contain 1.5mm thick copper, and the M'200 ranges have 2mm copper.
The benefit of one over the other comes down to the weight of the pans: M'200, due to more copper, is heavier than M'150. Professional chefs tend to choose M'200 pans for their stronger heat responsiveness and durability, which can withstand heavy restaurant-level use.
Various handle options of cast iron, brass or cast stainless steel give each range an aesthetic option for every cook, but note that stainless steel handles stay comparatively cooler than the others. Like all Mauviel pans, the handles are the same length as the base, which makes the pan feel balanced and comfortable to hold. It also allows them to stack neatly for efficient storage, making these pans ideal for apartment kitchens. The long handles are distinctly curved, with thumb grooves.
Copper pans are not dishwasher-safe. M'Heritage copper cookware is not suitable for induction hobs, but will work on all others including gas, electric, ceramic, halogen and the AGA.
M'6S
M'6S, Mauviel's induction copper range, blends state-of-the-art technology with French culinary tradition. It has six layers of metal – a core of three aluminium layers surrounded by stainless steel, finished with copper for an extra boost of heat-responsiveness. The handles are made of stainless steel, and the rims are curved for drip-free pouring. Like all Mauviel pans, the handles are the same length as the base, which makes the pan feel balanced and comfortable to hold. It also allows them to stack neatly for efficient storage, making these pans ideal for apartment kitchens. The long handles are distinctly curved, with thumb grooves. These pans work on all hobs including induction. They are not dishwasher-safe.
M'Tradition
Made entirely by hand, pieces in the M'Heritage range have either a hammered or smooth copper finish. They are lined with tin for superior caramelisation, but as tin wears down over time, the lining will need to be re-tinned; this tends to be the case every six years, depending on use. This collection honours Mauviel's centuries-old heritage by recreating pieces in their original forms. They are not induction-compatible or dishwasher safe. While many choose to collect these pieces as collector’s items, they are made to be cooked in, exactly as they were centuries ago. These pieces are not induction-compatible or dishwasher safe.
M’Elite (M’Elite, M’EliteB)
Mauviel M’Elite pans, available with stainless steel or bronze handles, are essentially similar to the BK-favourite M’Cook range. The key difference is that M’Elite pans have a hammered exterior, a purely aesthetic touch.
Mauviel M’Elite pans, like their M’Cook range, consist of five-ply stainless steel pans that have exterior and interior layers of 18/10 stainless steel, around three layers of aluminium that provide fast and uniform heat distribution. Like all Mauviel pans, the handles are the same length as the base, which makes the pan feel balanced and comfortable to hold. It also allows them to stack neatly for efficient storage, making these pans ideal for apartment kitchens. The long handles are distinctly curved, with thumb grooves.
M’Elite pans have stainless steel handles that stay cool on the hob. M’EliteB pans are exactly the same as M’Elite pans, but they have bronze handles that do not stay as cool; they should be handled with care, using tea towels to grip.
We do not recommend these pans for dishwasher use, as harsh detergents make the edges of these pans feel sharp with time. They are suitable for all hobs including induction. Pans with bronze handles will tarnish in the dishwasher.
M'Passion
This collection is dedicated to tools for baking cakes and pastries. Here you will find their iconic tin-lined copper Tarte Tatin pans, as well as copper whisking bowls (perfect for whipping egg whites, which copper naturally helps stabilise). They are not induction-compatible or dishwasher safe.
M’Minis
Mauviel's miniature cookware comes in both stainless steel and copper, and in various pan shapes. They can be used for cooking (in the oven, ideally), but are most popular for serving small portions and sauces.
M’30
Mauviel’s M’30 range comprises their utensils for the home bar, such as Champagne buckets and wine buckets, available in copper and stainless steel, with hammered finishes.
Mauviel Accessories
From utensils (like ladles and slotted spoons) to our best-selling Copperbrill copper cleaner, we carry a range of Mauviel accessories that compliment Mauviel cookware.
Frequently Asked Questions
Where is Mauviel cookware made?
Since 1830, Mauviel has been producing its fine cookware in a Normandy village called Villedieu-les-Poêles.
Can copper cookware go into the oven?
Yes. Copper pieces are oven safe up to 360°C. However, use caution with pieces having a tin interior (such as those in the M'Tradition collection). Tin will start to blister at 235°C and will subsequently need to be re-tinned.
How do I clean Mauviel copper cookware?
Copper is a soft metal, and therefore requires a little more care. It catches marks easily. Though letting the copper exterior darken with age and use does not harm its performance, and achieves an aesthetic many cooks favour, we recommend polishing copper to preserve its warm glow. The best polish for the job is Mauviel's Copperbrill copper cleaner.
Copper pans are not dishwasher safe, the harsh chemicals will damage the copper and shorten its lifespan. Never use cleaners containing bleach to clean copper cookware, as the corrosive nature of bleach will cause your cookware to pit. Always hand-wash and dry thoroughly, as moisture left on copper for too long might cause a greenish tint (verdigris).
How do I clean Mauviel M’Cook Stainless Steel Cookware?
Though stainless steel M’Cook cookware can be put in the dishwasher, we recommend hand-washing with soap, water and a sponge/scourer to extend the durability of these pans and avoid the steel from wearing down, especially along the edge where it can become 'sharp'. Pans with bronze handles should never be put in the dishwasher, as the material will tarnish.
