OUR GUEST

Stephen started the Field Company with his brother in 2015. They make a lighter, smoother cast iron skillet like your grandma had.

Stephen is passionate about making and using high-quality tools that enable folks to roll up their sleeves and take matters into their own hands. The goal with Field Company is to make things right, meaning Field Company has very high-quality standards, only using natural materials, and paying close attention to the making and manufacturing process. The company believes that if the process isn’t elegant, the end result rarely is! They apply this belief to their cast iron cookware and to everything that they make.

The two main features Field Skillet brought back to cast iron are the smooth cooking surface and lighter weight, which is common in older cast iron. They also wanted to make a beautiful object that feels great in your hands and makes you want to use it daily.
