Field Cast Iron Skillets are meticulously designed to combine the best features of vintage American cast iron with modern craftsmanship.

Our skillets are made in the USA using recycled iron and traditional green sand casting methods, just like the most celebrated vintage cast iron manufacturers, Griswold and Wagner. We use a machining process inspired by the best of vintage cookware, and then improved precisely dialed to be as smooth as possible while leaving just a touch of texture on surface to hold a great seasoning. The Field Skillet is the first smooth-surfaced pan that can hold an excellent seasoning since the early 1900s when they stone ground their pans.

Each skillet is pre-seasoned with three coats of organic grapeseed oil, providing a natural non-stick surface without harmful toxic chemicals or engineered coatings.

Like vintage pans, Field skillets have thinner sidewalls and weigh less overall, making them easy to reach for every day.

Just cook in it. The simple version is to use your pan. Use plenty of oil at first. Even with fatty stuff. Keep in mind that medium heat is often all you need, and remember that all pans need time to reach proper cooking temperature. A well seasoned cast iron skillet is easier to achieve with a Field skillet due to our unique polishing pattern that gives a smooth surface that can hold a seasoning.

Field Cast Iron Skillets are induction compatible. 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.
