Here is the link to 12" executive skillet which is under Product Information on CC.https://www.pamperedchef.com/repson...oduct_info_guide/2865_skilletexeccookware.pdfI like to have guests read the catalog description while I do a Vanna White style of holding it in one hand while waving my other hand over the parts that a guest is describing.... This way, I don't have to have it memorized!

DuPont is the same company that makes Teflon. Kind of like Ford makes Escorts and Mustangs. The way it has been explained to me is that the Autograph coating is baked on rather than sprayed on (like Teflon), which means that if the coating is scratched, it will not flake off. I found this about Autograph 2 on DuPont's website: http://www2.dupont.com/Teflon/en_US/assets/downloads/pdf/h93585_Autograph2_fact_sheet.pdfand this about Teflon: http://www2.dupont.com/Teflon/en_US/products/cookware_coatings/index.htmlThere's a great cookware selling guide on CC: https://www.pamperedchef.com/repsonly/images/cc/us/pdf/cookware_training_insert.pdf
