Here, we bring to market; a piece of DRU enameled cookware. This, the #26 Skillet, or Fry pan. The piece measures 19-5/8" lip to handle end, a major diameter of 10-1/2", and approximately 2-1/4" in height. The DRU is for Diepenbrock & Reigers of Ulft, Holland which produced this line from the 1930's through the 1960's in pastel colors with the classic tulip design of Holland for accent. This line of cookware is for the serious, discerning cook who requires sturdy, reliable equipment. The color is a lovely light blue with darker blues for the accent. For those, not familiar with DRU's history, we offer the following: On 17th May 1754, a sales contract for the building of a new blast furnace was signed between Johan Baptist van den Bergh and some local entrepreneurs in Ulft , the Netherlands. This project heralded the start of a company that is still going strong to this day. The company is called De Koninklijke Diepenbrock en Reigers of Ulft or, in short, DRU. DRU started out as a blast furnace, producing numerous products from cast iron. DRU pots and pans are still well known today. When natural gas was discovered in the Netherlands at the beginning of the 1960s, DRU switched to producing gas fires and wall heaters. DRU is now one of the oldest industrial companies in the Netherlands. As can be seen in the last two photos, we are currently in posession of a handful of lovely DRU pieces. Be aware, in this instance, you are purchasing only the #26 Wooden Handled Skillet/Frying Pan!
