Your new everyday pans—meticulously designed smoother, lighter cast iron skillets reminiscent of the best vintage American cast iron.
Natural Fiber Brush
Wash cast iron cookware with warm water, using the Natural Fiber Brush to remove loose food residue.
Soap up if you want to! Your cast iron can handle it.
Chain Mail Scrubber
Use the stainless steel Chain Mail Scrubber to get rid of stubborn food residue.
Even if your skillet is relatively clean, we recommend gently scuffing the surface and side walls of your skillet, preparing it to accept new and stronger seasoning.
Field Seasoning Oil
Dry your cast iron, then apply a thin coat of Seasoning Oil to all surfaces—including the side walls and bottom.
Even a thin coating will help ensure that you're building new, resilient seasoning every time you heat your skillet. Cook often, and apply after every use!

Frequently
Asked Questions
Vintage cast iron pans, the type prized for their smooth nonstick surfaces, used to be finished by hand. Today, most manufacturers produce rough, pebbly skillets to save cost. That's not all bad—it just takes longer to build a shiny and truly nonstick seasoning.
Field Skillets use a machining process modeled on the best of vintage cookware, precisely dialed in to be as smooth as possible while leaving just a touch of texture on the cooking surface to hold a great seasoning.
Yes! We deliver a pan that is ready to cook out of the box with a great cooking experience. Our naturally non-stick cooking surface comes from three coats of grapeseed oil preseasoning. No teflon, no dirty tricks.
Like all cast iron pans, you will see the non-stick properties increase even more over time as you follow the tried and true seasoning rule: Just Keep Cooking!
They do! We have a clever feature on all Field Company skillets—a heat ring! This is one of our favorite features: it’s both a reference to cookware conventions in a bygone era, and a clever way to meet the performance challenges of contemporary kitchens.
Our heat ring is designed to make sure the Field Skillet remains balanced as it heats up on glass or ceramic flat cooktops. At just 0.04” of clearance, it won’t interfere with cooking performance or lose any power from electric or induction heat elements, particularly since induction is activated through magnetics and iron is a magnetic element.
Field Skillets aren’t as light as throwaway nonstick cookware, but neither are they unnecessarily heavy. We spent years studying our favorite vintage skillets to find the perfect balance between lightness while maintaining enough bottom thickness for high heat searing and even cooking.
Our research found the Goldilocks zone to be 4.3 to 4.5 lbs for a 10 inch skillet. Anything above this zone only makes your pan harder to maneuver without adding cooking performance and anything below makes the pan more susceptible to warping or breakage. This weight is most similar to a Griswold skillet, one of our favorite antiques.
- Bruce W. M.Verified BuyerReviewingNo.8 Cast Iron Skillet #8 - 10 1/4"I recommend this productWhat type of stovetop do you primarily use with your cast iron?? GasRated 4 out of 5 stars4 days agoSize Matters
I have the #8 pan. Cooking surface is 10 1/inches. I have 2 slices of bacon cut in half here. Three slices would have been all it could take without the pieces bunching up together. I have cooked in it 6 times, just eggs snd bacon. I wish I have gotten the #12 for 13 3/8 cooking surface but that would have been another $100 for $265 total plus tax. I clean it while still warm with hot water and chain mail, put back on burner to dry low heat. Then coat with grape seed oil. It turns dark right after my first use with frying two eggs. I guess thats normal. Make sure to get the size you need.
- Catalina L.Verified BuyerReviewingLeather Handle Cover Brown / StandardI recommend this productRated 5 out of 5 stars1 week agoSimple. Beautiful. Safe.
The leather is thick, easy to wipe should you get something on it, and easy to slide on.
Most importantly? They keep us from burning a hand.
- William B. W.Verified BuyerReviewingLeather Handle Cover Cognac / StandardI recommend this productRated 5 out of 5 stars1 week agoWell Done!
Very good insulator. Good grip on handle. Well crafted using good materials. Should consider making some hot pads slightly larger than the circumference of the pan bottoms for hot pan placement during switch overs.
- Laura A.Verified BuyerReviewingNo.12 Cast Iron Skillet #12 - 13 3/8"I recommend this productWhat type of stovetop do you primarily use with your cast iron?? GasRated 5 out of 5 stars1 week agoWorth it. Wish I hadn’t waited so long.
Wonderful! I love the heat distribution and how everything browns evenly. I love using it stovetop and, then, putting it in the oven.
- Ed S.Verified BuyerReviewingLeather Handle Cover Cherry / StandardI recommend this productRated 5 out of 5 stars2 weeks agoWorks well, fits tight
Every piece should get a leather handle cover.
If you’re cooking with 2 pans, you have to swap it over so you don’t burn yourself.
