Create a succulent stew or hearty roast with the Signature oval Dutch oven from Le Creuset. Made of vibrant enameled cast iron, each Dutch oven is cast individually in sand molds, then hand-inspected by French artisans in order to preserve Le Creuset's tradition of the finest culinary craftsmanship. The colorful exterior enamel is shock-resistant to prevent chipping and cracking, while the sand-colored interior enamel promotes caramelization, prevents sticking, and resists stains. Ideal for slow-cooking, braising, and roasting, this Dutch oven distributes heat slowly and evenly and is ideal for both stovetop and oven use. The dome-shaped lid locks in flavor by promoting continuous circulation of heat and moisture, and the wide loop handles provide a safe and comfortable grip. Safe for use on any stovetop and induction ready, this Dutch oven is backed by a manufacturer's limited lifetime warranty. Even better, it is dishwasher safe for easy cleanup.
