"...Le Creuset, the renowned French premium cookware brand, proudly celebrates its centennial milestone with the launch of a dazzling limited-edition release named “Flamme Dorée.” Drawing inspiration from the brand’s signature Flame orange, this shimmering new hue marks the first time in Le Creuset’s history that its iconic colour has been infused with golden glitter, bringing an even more radiant touch to the dining table and elevating the artistry of cooking to new heights..."
Tracing back to its origins in 1925 in the town of Fresnoy-le-Grand, France, Le Creuset was born from a vision to create high-quality cast iron cookware. Meticulously crafted by skilled artisans using traditional methods passed down through generations, each piece embodies timeless design and uncompromising craftsmanship. More than just kitchenware, Le Creuset has become a cherished symbol of family, memory, and the joy of sharing meals together.
One of the most distinctive features that has won the hearts of Le Creuset enthusiasts around the world is its bold, vibrant colour palette. The brand was the first in the world to introduce colour to cookware, beginning with its now-iconic Flame orange—a shade that reflects the warmth of fire and the soulful spirit of French culinary tradition. Today, Le Creuset offers over 200 colours and nearly 1,000 product variations, tailored to suit every lifestyle and personal taste with effortless elegance.
“Le Creuset cookware has long captivated hearts around the globe with its exceptional beauty and unparalleled craftsmanship. For over a century, the brand has embodied a dedication to creating heirloom-quality pieces that inspire cherished memories and culinary traditions”
Paul van Zuydam, Owner & Chairman of Le Creuset
To commemorate this colourful century, Le Creuset has also collaborated with esteemed publishing house Assouline to release a special-edition book, Le Creuset: A Century of Colorful Cookware. This beautifully curated coffee table book showcases never-before-seen photographs and stories from the brand’s rich heritage, making it a must-have for collectors and culinary enthusiasts alike.
Further celebrating the occasion, Le Creuset has produced a heartfelt video series featuring renowned chefs, tastemakers, and loyal fans who share their admiration and personal stories connected to the brand.
