This modern cast iron cookware is sure to elevate the aesthetic of the kitchen. As this type of instrument is becoming largely popular due to its durability and functional properties, Chicago-based company Strand Design seeks to bring a stylish component to it. Currently being funded on Kickstarter is a 10.5'' skillet that can seamlessly transition from on-stove to an on-table setting. The silhouette of the modern cast iron cookware is carefully developed as to not interfere with the at-home chef's carefully arranged dinner presentation.
Of course, the elevated aesthetic of this must-have kitchen appliance does not sacrifice any of the functional features of traditional cast iron skillets. Ironwood boasts a smooth surface that does not stick, minimal weight construction and "a high-carbon alloy for optimum heat transfer."
