DescriptionDescription: Arne Erkers, who studied silversmithing at Tekniska skolan in Stockholm in the 1940s, began freelancing for Kockums in 1955. This saucepan is designed to be functional and ergonomic. The Bakelite handle does not conduct heat and balances the pan when the thumb is placed on the upper side. The lid is bevelled to prevent it from slipping off the pan, and the broad rim is drip-free when pouring. It can also be stacked with the lid on. It was awarded a silver medal at the Milan Triennial in 1957.
