Few cookware pieces are as beloved by top chefs and home chefs alike as Le Creuset, the venerable French kitchenware company founded in 1925.
More than a century later, Le Creuset’s enameled cast iron pots and Dutch ovens continue to be a staple in some of the most stylish homes around the world, offering consistent cooking for your braises and broils as well as aesthetic decor for your countertops. Each piece is still hand-crafted and hand-finished to this day, using traditional methods perfected in its original foundry in France.
But as a luxury cookware brand, Le Creuset’s pieces almost never go on sale, and while they release a host of new colorways each year, they rarely discount or close out old merchandise. That’s why a current Macy’s promotion is worth taking advantage of, with the department store’s “Star Deals Week” giving shoppers a chance to score coveted Le Creuset pieces for up to 40 percent off.
The sale comes ahead of the holiday season, where a new pot or new tableware will come in handy for entertaining guests. The Macy’s sale also includes Le Creuset accessories that make great gifting ideas.
VERSATILE PIECE
Enameled Cast Iron 3.5-Quart Signature Wide Round Oven
The sale includes 38 percent off Le Creuset’s signature 3.5-quart round oven, made from the brand’s legendary cast iron enamel.
Choose from more than a dozen colors on sale, including this autumnal “nectar” shade seen above. The pot is compatible with all cooktops and oven-safe up to 500°F. Everything is made to be used for years and passed down for generations, with the products backed by Le Creuset’s famous lifetime warranty.
SIGNATURE PIECE
Enameled Cast Iron 6.5-Quart Deep Round Dutch Oven
You can also get this larger 6.5-quart cast iron and ceremic Dutch oven on sale for 37 percent off.
We like this “sea salt” colorway, which is at once classic and contemporary. This is the signature deep round Dutch oven from Le Creuset, with a varieties of ways to use it.
DO-IT-ALL DISH
Enameled Cast Iron 5.25-Quart Rectangular Roaster
This roasting dish can be used for everything from casseroles to lasagnas and it’s marked down by 40 percent off for a limited time.
This is the cheapest price we’ve seen for this Le Creuset essential this year. The brand says the interior enamel promotes even cooking and prevents food from sticking to the bottom. The side handles, meantime, make it easy to pick this pan with oven mitts. Choose from more than 12 colors online; this is the “oyster” colorway shown above.
CLASSIC DESIGN
Enamel On Steel 1.7 Quart Whistling Tea Kettle
Few things make you feel at home as much as a tea kettle on the stovetop, and this one features all the bells and whistles — literally.
The teapot is made from carbon steel and finished with a colorful enamel, while a large handle makes it safe and easy to grip. And yes, just like the old school kettles, this one “whistles” when your water has come to a boil.
We like this “cherise” red color but Macy’s has four other colors on sale as of this writing.
9-PIECE SET
Signature Enameled Cast Iron Cookware Set
I’ve had this Le Creuset cookware set in this exact “flame” color for more than a decade now, and it still holds up to weekly use, whether I’m sauteing vegetables in the pan, slow braising meat in the pot, or taking a Sunday afternoon to make broth.
This set includes a round dutch oven with lid, oval dutch oven with lid, round braiser with lid, saucepan with lid, and round skillet — nine pieces in total. Everything is made with Le Creuset’s enameled cast iron and backed by their limited lifetime waranty.
A cookware set like this almost never goes on sale, but Macy’s has seven colorways marked down by 34 percent off.
SET OF TWO
Stoneware Heritage Pie Dish & Fluted Loaf Pan Set
Bakers will want to pick up this set, which includes an 11.3 x 6.3-inch loaf pan, and an 11-inch diameter pie dish.
We like the scalloped handles, which add a decorative touch while also making it easier to take these out of the oven (while wearing oven mitts of course). The colorful “cerise” glaze adds a festive touch for the holidays.
GIFT SET
Mini Round Stoneware Cocottes (Set of 4)
This Le Creuset set of mini cocottes (small Dutch ovens) makes for a great gift idea, presented in a branded box and with an accompanying recipe book.
The cocottes are great for everything from sauces to soups to desserts, and Le Creuset says the material is safe for the freezer, microwave, broiler and oven, making the cooking options virtually endless.
