The First in Colourful Cookware

Le Creuset is a pioneer in colour development and the leader in highly-durable, chip-resistant enamelled cast iron. Although others now offer their own interpretations of our signature craft, our visionary enamel expertise spans nearly a century and gives our brand the edge in quality and innovation. From the pure, rich tones of our colours to the fine quality of our distinct gradient and finishes, Le Creuset’s leadership in colour is unmistakable.

Since the introduction of our signature Flame color in 1925, Le Creuset has been known for high-quality, colorful cookware. Our early artisans transformed the industry by bringing bold, true color to the kitchen. That legacy continues and the brand now offers an unmatched range of vibrant, durable hues and finishes on a spectrum of materials like cast iron, stoneware, silicone, enamel on steel and more.

Le Creuset’s palette of classic colors and trend-leading hues demonstrates our unique perspective on color. Our design-forward approach has resulted in the release of some of the world’s most sought-after shades, often turning Le Creuset cookware into powerful style statements and cherished collections. As Le Creuset continues to captivate customers with timeless colors and inspire trends with visionary new hues, our bold commitment to color sets us apart — just as it did in 1925.
