The best cast iron in the world comes from the bottom of the world. The Heirloom by Ironclad Co. is handmade to order from 100% recycled iron, combining craftsmanship with tradition. Inspired by pre-mass production cast iron from the 1800s, each piece features our signature Antique Finish™. This unparalleled smooth surface feels like ceramic and performs like non-stick—without harmful chemicals.

Each Heirloom is cast with Ironclad’s Three Generation Guarantee®, a promise that it will stand the test of time and be cherished for generations. This cast iron contract can also be personalised with a name, date, and message, making it a meaningful gift for weddings, anniversaries, new homes, and milestone birthdays.

The Heirloom arrives nestled in a wooden presentation box and includes lifetime access to the Recipe Vault®. This secure digital platform stores cherished family recipes for generations to come.

Due to the labour-intensive process, each Heirloom takes approximately six weeks to complete. We accept a limited number of orders on the first of every month. Sign up for notifications to secure yours—no deposit needed.

This process takes time, so we only take a limited number of orders each month. Orders open on the first of every month and sell out fast.

Food-Safe Cast Iron: Every Ironclad cast iron pour is quality tested to meet the highest global food and safety standards, including FDA and California Proposition 65 requirements.

Everything Compatible: Works on all heat sources, including induction, gas, electric, ceramic, BBQ, oven, pizza oven, and campfire.

Hand-Smoothed: A meticulously hand-finished cooking surface and base create a naturally non-stick pan that is gentle on delicate cooktops.

No Forever Chemicals: Free from PFAS, PFOA, and PTFE.

100-Year Product Warranty: Comes with an extraordinary Three Generation Guarantee®, cast directly into the iron. If your cookware warps, cracks, or loses structural integrity over 100 years of normal daily use, we’ll replace it.

"Normal daily use" means cooking with it, taking it camping, or using it on an oven, BBQ, or campfire. It doesn’t cover things like throwing it into the ocean on a dare, using it as a hammer, eating it, or melting it down for a drink—things of that sort.

Recipe Vault: Each Ironclad cast iron pan includes free access to the Recipe Vault®, a secure digital platform to store your warranty info and precious family recipes for generations to come.

The Ironclad cleaning ritual is quick and easy.

  1. Wash
    Wipe away residue with a dry cloth or paper towel. Rinse and scrub as needed. Dry thoroughly.
  2. Warm
    Heat the pan on low to help with seasoning absorption.
  3. Oil
    Rub a teaspoon of oil or conditioning balm over the entire surface.
  4. Done
    Let cool. Ready to use again and again!

FAQs

The Heirloom features Ironclad’s signature Antique Finish™, a smooth, hand-polished surface inspired by 1800s cast iron. It also offers the option to personalise the Three Generation Guarantee® with a name, date, or message, making it a meaningful family keepsake.

After purchasing your Heirloom, our team will contact you to help design the personalisation. You can engrave up to 50 characters around the cast iron guarantee, including a name, date, or message. This thoughtful detail transforms the pan into a unique keepsake, perfect for marking weddings, anniversaries, new homes, or milestone moments. Once confirmed, the engraving is hand-finished into the base of the pan, ensuring it will remain part of your family’s legacy for generations to come.

Due to the labour-intensive process, each Heirloom takes approximately six weeks to complete. We take a limited number of orders on the 1st of every month. Sign up to Ironclub to get notified when the next orders open.

Absolutely! The Heirloom is compatible with all heat sources, including induction.

Hand-washing is recommended to preserve the seasoning. Simply use a good brush and hot water, dry thoroughly, and apply a thin coat of oil.

Think of your cookware like an ingredient—you want the best quality for your food. There are four types of cast iron, but only grey cast iron is ideal for cookware. At Ironclad, we test every pour for purity and we use only food-safe grey cast iron. Unlike some brands that opt for cheaper, lower-grade iron. Always check with your cookware maker about their materials—they owe you that transparency.

We want to ensure a smooth delivery for your Ironclad. For international orders, please be aware that your country may impose additional import duties and taxes. You can estimate these costs by contacting your local customs office before placing your order.
