How to Get the Best Performance

For stainless steel pieces, preheat the pan before adding oil, then allow food to naturally release before flipping or moving. Use low to medium heat and silicone, nylon, or wooden utensils to help preserve the surface.

Care tips:

  • Preheat stainless steel pieces before cooking
  • Use low to medium heat for even results
  • Let cookware cool before washing
  • Use a soft sponge or non-scratch pad
  • Bar Keepers Friend restores shine when needed
  • Hand wash recommended for best long-term performance

From our customers

The experience shopping with Sage & Sill was a good one ... the order I received was damaged in transit. The package itself was very securely wrapped though, so I'm not sure how the damage occurred. I reported the damage immediately & followed through on the information the company needed, including photos of the damaged item. I explained I only needed a replacement bulb for the item, as that was what I sent the picture of. To my surprize though, today I received a whole new replacement order, not just the broken part (the bulb)! And it was super quick too! Thanx so much, Sage & Sill 🤍

Ordered an item for delivery to the UK that wasn't available anywhere here. Good price, great service, regular email updates and it arrived in one piece (I was worried, as it's glass), Lovely item too. A perfect experience really.

Ordered a gift for someone. Product was exactly as pictured! She loved it. At first I had a bit of trouble with the tracking number not updating. I reached out to customer service. They responded within 24 hours. They seemed genuinely concerned, investigated the problem, and sent me a new tracking number. The package actually arrived ahead of the estimated delivery date. Based on my first experience with this company, I would definitely order again from them.

I love browsing through the many beautiful items on their site. I also appreciate Sage & Sill's honesty, with each item stating up front the expected ship date range. I placed 2 separate orders. Both arrived within the window. Knowing it might take a while is much better than being disappointed by a late shipment!
