Arcuisine has been a family owned business since 1897 and was started by George Durand. Currently made in Arques and Chateauroux France, Arcuisine Elegance is a new collection of high quality, superior, borosilicate glass cookware and kitchen prep products. The pieces have incredible heat distribution; they heat up quickly and gently so your food is cooked uniformly and all the natural juices are maintained. Elegance has high heat retention- the food baked in Elegance stays hot longer on your table or counter. Elegance products are extremely durable-it is 20% more resistant to thermal shock than soda lime glass and unlike soda lime, will not shatter when broken
