While styling the kitchen recently, I had a moment of clarity.
I realized that I tend to use just a few simple mixes and ingredients…
and they are on repeat all.the.time.
I love something with the character of warm wood.
Something with a bit of vintage charm.
And something with a whole lot of amazing metal patina.
Like copper.
My island area is a perfect example.
It is a mix and mingle of this and that – new and old- vintage and fresh.
The wood island has a decidedly antique feeling with carved legs and details and an open shelf underneath. On top, I have added a chunky slab of marble that was leftover from our countertops. Above, there are 2 vintage chandeliers and below- a stack of gorgeous copper beauty.
And of course, the kitchen is in the book. Including a view you haven’t seen before. And in that view- you will see more of that deliciousness.
I will admit that I am mildly obsessed with copper. As a focal point. As an accent. On the shelf. Behind the range. I love it all.
And last year when I was working on a separate project- I discovered a company that makes such gorgeous copper pots and pans- they completely knocked my socks off.
Lagostina.
Lagostina has been making cookware since 1901 and is Italy’s premium preferred cookware brand.
And they make the most amazing cookware of all kinds. But of course, my absolute favorite is the Martellata.
In case you are wondering- yes, we do cook with our copper. And copper is amazing to cook with.
And even better- when you are not using the copper pots and pans- copper can be left out and enjoyed as a display instead of tucking away into the cupboard.
I have had so many questions about our copper since sharing it-
and I am so excited to have Lagostina joining me to celebrate French Country Cottage Book
and they are so generous in offering one of my readers
This is the EXACT set I have and love and I am so thrilled to be able to give a set away to one of you!

Lovely, I am receiving your email which I love ! I am following Lagostino on Instagram and I will try to share ok Instagram
I was introduced to Lagostina pans over thirty years ago when they first were introduced to American kitchens. I love using these stainless steel pans as they are heavy and clean up well. I use them every time I cook. In fact, I would be happy to be their spokesperson…. I also love copper pans as they are wonderful conductors of heat. I would love a set of Lagostina's copperware as I would use them as I use their stainless cousins and they would look as lovely in my kitchen as they do yours! Thanks.
Courtney, P.S. I follow your blog but under another email but couldn't access it to enter the copper event….just to let you know that I am a long time follower but use another email for that…..thanks.
First of all congrats Courtney! I didn’t know you had a book coming out!! Cannot wait to order whichnill be doing next! I would love to win those pots! They would be great for styling and cooking! Hope to see you in High Point!
