we have a copy here as well -- amusingly, it was Mrs. H's from her bachelorette days (?!)

A belated Christmas present arrived today.
In early December I conspired with our son to ship a very nice and very old French copper saucepan that we have to a place in Rhode Island that retins cookware. This was a Christmas present from our son for mom
It came back today.
We had let it deteriorate to quite a sorry condition over the years -- simply because we didn't know that retinning was a thing. It is a thing, as it turns out.
The retinners, FWIW, in case anyone's wonderin':

This isn't my photo, or our pan, but ours was in more or less this sort of condition when sent to the retinners.

Ah! Now I see what was the inspiration for the character names in this series.

How does that tin not come off and get into food or sauces?
edit: I see it melts at 449.? Lets say 450. I guess we really do not heat that high...

It does come off slowly but surely over time. After 60 years or so, there was essentially none left inside that poor pan.
