A Century of Timeless Design

Armand Desaegher and Octave Aubecq pioneered the first enamelled cast iron casserole in the original colour, Volcanic.

‘The father of streamlining’, ‘the father of industrial design’ - Raymond Loewy has been called by many names, but few know this French-American was the official designer of our Coquelle – a minimalist, post-war rendition of the traditional round casserole.

Le Creuset purchases competitor Les Hauts Fourneaux de Cousances, expanding our product range to include grills and fondue sets.

Le Creuset begins exploring new product categories, including stainless steel, stoneware, silicone, and other materials.  

Our foundry increases its capacity

Celebrating 100 years of colourful design, Le Creuset continues to innovate with the introduction of Flamme Dorée, remaining at the forefront of kitchenware.
