About Williams Sonoma
Williams Sonoma sells cookware, knives and kitchen equipment at the premium end, and its catalogue introduced many American households to French and Italian cooking tools. Its founder imported the first commercial French copper pans sold in the country. Its cookbooks and its long-running catalogue essays did as much to shape American home cooking as the equipment it sold, and it still runs cooking classes in many stores.
