Misen Cookware

Misen Cookware is a collection of pots and pans designed with sculpted handles that focus on maximizing ergonomics and control, as well as bases that provide even heat distribution and retention. Appropriate for both the professional and home cook, the seven piece collection features skillets, sauciers, sauté pans, and a stockpot.

The sloping and curving handles soften the performance-based materiality of stainless steel, with each consideration in form working to further a total function. In the handles, the rounding provides comfort in use, while the tapering allows heat to escape before reaching one’s hand and proportional balance for easy maneuvering. In the bases, considerations like edges that are rolled and closed for better pouring and durability, and curved walls on the saucier that are ideal for whisking, allow this set to outperform. The collection balances high performance and beauty, speaking to the confluence of cooking; both an art and a science.
