Oval dish for cooking whole flat fishes (e.g. flounder), from the collection of the Potocki family, made of copper sheet, manufactured in the 19th century. The vessel is oval in shape with fairly high sides, slightly tapered in the middle. The upper edge is turned up, forming a small shaft on which the lid rests. The lid is shaped to match the main vessel, slightly recessed, with two holes remaining from the missing handle. On the sides of the vessel, on its axis, two movable handles in the shape of door knockers, made of steel. Inside the vessel, a punched steel insert with two handles. The vessel inside bear old traces of tinning. It is exhibited in the Eastern Corridor of the second floor, where copper wares (vessels), which are mainly the remains of the castle kitchens that have not been preserved, are gathered.
