I am so pleased to have found your site.  I bought a 28cm frying pan and a 24cm saute pan from a street trader in Paris 10 years ago and they are the best pans I have ever owned.  I have given them a hell of a lot of use and they have been used by a professional chef in my kitchen (an experience I thought they would never recover from!).  They are just about wearing out now and I have been dreading having to replace them with a flimsey Tefal pan...so you can expect an order soon!,  Mr Davies
