Heavy, Hammered copper pot by Dehillerin
According to the stamp we believe this pot was produced between 1945 - 1960
“Dehillerin" had been central to the Parisian (and French) cooking industry for more than a hundred years when Americans began to discover French cooking en masse after World War II. Julia Child bought many of her copper pots from Dehillerin and you can see them hanging in the Smithsonian Museum of American History in Washington, DC. According to the Smithsonian Magazine, “The pots were purchased in France between 1948 and 1952, during the time that the family lived in Provence. Several bear the address 18 rue Coquillière.” When Chuck Williams came to Paris in 1953 he visited the Dehillerin store and it served as part of his inspiration to open the first Williams-Sonoma store in California.
