Vintage Hotel du Parc Cannes Copper Lid
This substantial copper lid originates from the renowned Hotel du Parc Cannes, a landmark establishment with a rich history. The lid exhibits a classic French design, likely intended for a large cooking vessel used in the hotel’s kitchens. Its generous size and robust construction suggest it was designed for heavy-duty use, and the handle provides a secure grip. The patina on the copper speaks to its age and years of service within a bustling professional kitchen.
