Williams-Sonoma Introduces Exclusive FINEX Heirloom-quality Cast Iron Cookware Designs

FINEX Cast Iron Cookware Co. and Williams-Sonoma announce the launch of a collection of heirloom-quality cast iron cookware sold only at Williams-Sonoma stores and online. This family of USA-made products includes FINEX's 12" Cast Iron Skillet as well as their new 10" Cast Iron Skillet and 10" Cast Iron Ribbed Grill Pans.

For generations Americans have turned to cast iron for perfectly tender yet crispy results on everything from cornbread to home fries to blueberry pancakes to roast chicken. FINEX simplifies cast iron cooking with long overdue redesigns of beloved classics that include handcrafted quick-cooling ergonomic spring handles, true BBQ-width grill ribs and polished easy-release cooking surfaces. FINEX is on track to bring back all the taste and benefits of cast iron cooking along with distinctive design to cooks worldwide.

"We are thrilled to get these modern cast iron cookware heirlooms into even more kitchens through this collaboration with a premium company like Williams-Sonoma," explained FINEX founder Mike Whitehead.

Founded in 2012, FINEX Cast Iron Cookware Co. is a small team of Portland-based perfectionists dedicated to bringing machine polished heirloom-quality cast iron cookware back to America for the first time in over half a century. Inspired by vintage cookware but with modern designs and improved performance FINEX puts as much thought into what you cook in as you do in selecting what you cook in it. They believe your history is slowly baked into every piece of cast iron cookware you use and are honored to be a part of your family meals. FINEX is currently handcrafting 8" skillets, 10" ribbed grill pans and both 10" and 12" skillets and lids in the United States.
