Basalt™ 2 Piece 12 Inch Sauté Skillet with Lid

Superior Construction

The Basalt 12-Inch Sauté Skillet is crafted from professional-grade formed aluminum, delivering rapid, even heat distribution that eliminates hot spots for perfectly cooked results every time. Built for durability and everyday performance, this skillet brings reliable, consistent heating whether you sear, sauté, brown, or pan-fry. The Basalt cookware line embodies timeless design and lasting craftsmanship, giving home cooks the confidence of professional-grade quality in every meal.

Premium Nonstick Performance

A Swiss-made 3-layer ceramic nonstick coating provides outstanding food release, allowing you to cook with minimal oil for lighter, healthier meals. From delicate eggs to caramelized vegetables and golden, crispy proteins, food slides effortlessly from the cooking surface without sticking. Cleanup is equally simple; hand wash with warm, soapy water is recommended to maintain optimal nonstick performance over time.

Design & Engineered

This spacious 12-inch sauté skillet offers a generous round cooking surface with a low, wide profile ideal for preparing family-sized breakfasts, hearty stir-fry dinners, and everything in between. The striking basalt-colored exterior paired with a speckled interior gives the skillet a sleek, modern aesthetic that looks at home in any kitchen. Whether you are braising, deglazing a rich pan sauce, or searing proteins to a perfect golden brown, this versatile design serves your everyday cooking needs with ease.

Stovetop Compatibility

This skillet is compatible with gas, electric, and ceramic stovetops, making it a versatile addition to virtually any kitchen setup. Transition seamlessly from stovetop to oven for complete cooking flexibility.

Handles & Lids

The riveted stainless steel handle is engineered for a secure, ergonomic grip that provides comfort and control during cooking. Its sturdy construction keeps the handle firmly attached to the skillet for confident handling, even with heavier loads. The included stainless steel lid features a durable knob designed for easy lifting and safe handling, keeping heat and moisture locked in while you simmer, steam, or braise.

Made to Last

The Basalt 12-Inch Sauté Skillet with Lid is backed by a 5 Year Warranty, reflecting Nordic Ware’s commitment to quality and longevity. The nonstick skillet and lid are oven safe up to 400 degrees Fahrenheit; use low to medium heat on the stovetop for optimal performance, and choose silicone, nylon, or wooden utensils to protect the nonstick surface. With professional-grade construction, effortless nonstick cooking, and a timeless design built to endure, this skillet set delivers exceptional value for everyday meals and special occasions alike.
