Le Creuset's signature flame color takes its inspiration from the raw beauty of molten iron being poured from a crucible, or "creuset" in French. Made of cast iron coated with enamel, this oval Dutch oven is perfect for cooking generous servings of stews, roasts and soups. Impervious to acid, alkali, odors and stains, the Dutch oven provides unsurpassed heat retention, with a lid that creates an even "blanket" of heat. Compatible with all types of heat sources, from gas and electric stoves, to ceramic and glass cooktops, to induction and halogen, the oven has a larger, easy-to-grip handles and a stainless steel knob on the lid.

Revered by both professional chefs and home cooks since its 1925 debut, Le Creuset's classic French cookware is prized for its utilitarian beauty and unsurpassed heat retention.
