Have you ever felt more inspired-slash-coerced into cooking at home than you do at the moment? Best to be equipped to do so – and French cookware maker Le Creuset makes the kind of cast-iron casseroles, baking dishes and stockpots you’ll keep your whole life. Its hallmark porcelain-enamelled pots have been in production since 1925.
The company’s new giftware range, called the Calm Collection, is focused on comforting, soothing colours (and we’ll take any mood boost we can right now.) It includes tableware (mugs, espresso cups, ramekins and bowls) and cookware (mini cocottes) in sets of four in new soft colourways of meringue, shell pink, sea salt and mist grey. It’s available from April 15 in all Le Creuset stores, online and at the brand's stockists. Buy a gift for yourself or send it to a friend or family member to lighten their day.
The second range, Zen Kitchen, takes its cues from Japanese culture. It features pieces in the same warm whites seen in the Calm Collection alongside vibrant reds and blues, and a charcoal-grey. The collection includes the signature Le Creuset cocotte, as well as new-design noodle and ramen bowls, a stainless-steel shallow casserole ideal for stir-fries, a stoneware teapot and sauce ramekins. Zen Kitchen is available to shop now.
Le Creuset is also having a 20 per cent off sale right now on a range of items.
