It goes without saying that Le Creuset’s enameled cast iron cookware performs splendidly in the kitchen. But the brand’s “handcrafted in France” reputation only bolsters the popularity of its products. Oftentimes, heritage brands carry timeless pieces in terms of function and design. Although that’s certainly true of Le Creuset, they still consistently surprise us with bold hues, fun shapes, and somewhat lesser known kitchen accessories that deserve icon status every bit as much as their cult-favorite Dutch oven. If you’re a fan of cookware that’s whimsical enough to double as decor, you’ll love the most recent Le Creuset find we stumbled across. The flower cocotte carries out the same functions as the traditional Dutch oven, but it takes up way less space and makes a major statement on your stove. Plus, it’s currently on sale for under $200, meaning you can snag your next mealtime must-have for just over $60 off its original price.

What is the Le Creuset Flower Cocotte?

Much like Le Creuset’s other Dutch ovens, the 2.25-quart flower cocotte can be used to cook a variety of things. It’s made of the brand’s signature enameled cast iron, so it’s oven-safe up to 500°F. As a result, you can make roasts, bread, and cute flower-shaped cakes in the oven. On the stove, cook anything from stews to soups to one-pot pasta meals — the options are endless. And cleanup is a breeze, too, thanks to the cocotte’s scratch-resistant and dishwasher-safe material. You’ll also love its generous side handles, which allow for easy transportation from oven to stove to table, as well as the ergonomic lid knob. Indeed, this little pot is so durable (and charming), that one Le Creuset reviewer joked about buying two as heirloom pieces so their descendants don’t fight over just the one. Although the flower cocotte is already sold out in the Honey color, you can still get it in Provence purple or Caribbean blue. Just don’t wait too long!
