Jill,

That would normally not be the case. The only All-Clad pan I have that came
without a lid is the butter warmer. Sometimes the "try-me" pans come
without a lid. I have more All-Clad lids than I know what to do with and
when I've mailed-ordered from Cookware & More have to request a pan without
a lid.

If you have some of the smaller pans (1 qt. 1-1/2 qt. and 2 qt.), they all
use the 6" lid.
