Mercato Centrale, I believe it is called--the central market. There must 
have been at least half a dozen different sellers.

Two versions, a more expensive one with a copper band around it and 
copper handles, a less expensive with a (I presume) steel band and 
wooden handles--the latter probably less likely to burn your hands. A 
variety of sizes.

They are all packed for my trip home at this point--not a trivial 
matter, but I think I have managed to do it without having to buy 
another suitcase. When I get them unpacked I may take a few pictures and 
send them to the list or web them.
