A century of Le Creuset

An heirloom in the making: Celebrating 100 years of inspiring traditions

In honour of its 100th anniversary, Le Creuset is embarking on a global celebration of rich culinary traditions past and present while also looking ahead to the future, paying homage to the brand’s unrivalled heritage of excellence.

This anniversary marks a celebration of Le Creuset’s century-long legacy, honouring the artisans who craft each piece with care in Fresnoy-le-Grand, France, the esteemed chefs who inspire culinary excellence, and the passionate fans who cherish the brand.

Le Creuset transcends the functionality of cookware with handcrafted heirlooms that foster connections over the shared joy of food, meal after meal, generation after generation. The brand has become a colourful staple in kitchens worldwide, trusted by home cooks and professional chefs for decades.

An Icon, Reimagined
In keeping with its decades-long, industry-leading innovation and forward-thinking design, Le Creuset is excited to unveil its latest advancement in colourful cookware: Flamme Dorée. Translated to “golden flame,” the limited-edition, centenary colourway celebrates Flame, the brand’s iconic original hue, now featuring an innovative third layer of enamel coating, enhanced with a beautiful, golden shimmer finish.
“This new, limited-edition commemorative release joins the brand’s ever-expanding collection, which has grown to include over 200 unique hues and nearly 1,000 product shapes since its founding.”

Paul van Zuydam, Owner & Chairman.
