Gibson Home Barnsdall 7-Piece Ceramic Non-Stick Forged Aluminum Cookware Set with Kitchen Tools - Sage Green
Gibson Home Barnsdall 7-Piece Ceramic Non-Stick Forged Aluminum Cookware Set
A cookware set in sage green, with a ceramic non-stick interior and the two utensils you actually need already in the box. The Gibson Home Barnsdall 7-piece set is built on forged aluminum - denser and more warp-resistant than stamped aluminum - with soft-touch Bakelite handles that stay cool on the stovetop, and it arrives in a gift box.
What's Included
- 1 x 2-quart saucepan with lid
- 1 x 5-quart Dutch oven with lid
- 1 x 9.5 in frying pan
- 1 x nylon turner
- 1 x nylon spoon
Key Features
- Forged Aluminum, Not Stamped: Forged aluminum is denser and holds its shape under heat - a stamped pan warps and rocks on the burner within a year or two. This is the single biggest quality difference in a set at this price.
- Ceramic Non-Stick Interior: A ceramic non-stick release surface - eggs slide, fish comes off in one piece, and cleanup is a wipe.
- Soft-Touch Bakelite Handles: Bakelite does not conduct heat, so the handles stay cool on the stovetop and are comfortable to grip through a long simmer.
- Two Nylon Tools Included: A nylon turner and spoon come in the box - and nylon is exactly what a non-stick surface wants. Most sets sell you the pans and then let you scratch them with your old metal spatula.
- The Three Pans That Matter: A 2-quart saucepan, a 9.5 inch fry pan and a 5-quart Dutch oven cover essentially everything a home cook does on a stovetop.
- Sage Green Finish: A soft, current colorway that looks like part of the kitchen rather than an appliance.
- Arrives in a Gift Box: Ready to give.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What are the seven pieces?
A: A 2-quart saucepan with lid, a 5-quart Dutch oven with lid, a 9.5 inch frying pan, a nylon turner and a nylon spoon. Two of the seven are the utensils.
Q: Is it PFOA-free or PFAS-free?
A: Gibson publishes a PFA-free / PFOA-free / PTFE-free claim for the 10-piece Barnsdall set, but does NOT publish it for this 7-piece set. We will not carry a chemical claim across from a different SKU, so we make no claim here. If chemical composition is a deciding factor for you, contact Gibson before purchasing.
Q: Can I put these pans in the oven?
A: No oven rating is published for the 7-piece set, and the handles are Bakelite - a material that is specifically not oven-friendly. Treat this as stovetop cookware.
Q: Will it work on an induction cooktop?
A: Gibson does not publish an induction rating for the 7-piece set. The 10-piece Barnsdall is marketed as induction-compatible, but that is a different set with different construction, so we will not carry the claim over.
Q: Is it dishwasher safe?
A: Gibson does not publish a dishwasher rating for the 7-piece set. Hand wash it - which is what you should do with any ceramic non-stick anyway, if you want the coating to last.
Q: Are the lids glass?
A: Gibson does not state the lid material for the 7-piece set (the 10-piece uses glass lids), so we do not claim glass. Refer to the product photos.
Care & Use
Hand wash. No dishwasher rating is published for this set, and ceramic non-stick coatings degrade faster in a dishwasher regardless of what any manufacturer says.
Use only the included nylon tools, or wood or silicone. Metal utensils will destroy a ceramic non-stick surface faster than anything else you can do to it.
Cook on low to medium heat. Ceramic non-stick coatings lose their release properties when repeatedly overheated - high heat is the enemy of a ceramic pan, not the friend.
Why Choose Gibson Home?
