Casteline Multiply 14cm
Five-layer 18/10 stainless saucepan from the detachable-handle Casteline range, made in Fesches-le-Châtel.
Our take
The detachable handle is the whole point: you buy one handle and reuse it across every Casteline body you own, which genuinely cuts material and cupboard space. Read the listing carefully though — this price buys a pot with no handle at all, and once you add one the total lands above a comparable fixed-handle saucepan.

About Cristel
Doubs stainless-steel maker built around detachable handles, so one handle serves a whole set and a worn part is replaced rather than the pan.
